Looking great, Jon! Cheers & Happy Holidays from the States! I'm really looking forward to getting back to Chiang Mai in a couple of weeks! Thanks--kob khun mahk--for ANOTHER Great Chiang Mai Video! 🙂
I just got to Chiange Mai yesterday to visit my mother. The airport has never been busier. While in Bangkok they have 3x plus the hotel prices from when i prebooked. Bts, malls, taxi busiest I have witnessed. All this being said it is still surprisingly manageable and I am still enjoying my visit.
The traffic and congestion in the old city is soo bad right now that I just stay away from the city center if I can... You can tell it's high season because of all the tourists are walking down the middle of the streets in town... Not to mention they still have the roads dug up for repairs since high season LAST YEAR...
I will be there in two weeks the anticipation is killing me. My favourite city in the whole world . My wife and i will be checking out condos in the night bazaar area , Chang Khlan, or Haiya areas .
Good to know CM busy and hope local businesses (and all connected to tourist economy) doing well and having an abundant closing to 2024!!! Especially since as you said, burning season coming up...
Nice vid. There's also The City View Condominium, old but you get can get some really decent bargains there. 5 min walk to the night market and Loi Kroh, I loved living there. Quick walk across the iron bridge to Rimping supermarket. I paid 6k pm for a studio with nice wooden floors and a little kitchen on the balcony. Highly recommended. To rent, not sure about buying, as they have some issues with having broken the 51/49 Thai / Farang ownership rules allegedly. Down a nice little quiet street, with lots of little restaurants nearby. I'd go there again in a heartbeat. It's also huge, and top floors are very quiet.
Another cool vlog, dig it✌♥️ Yeah, Mandala House is great, I stayed there in April, highly recommended. One of best things besides the location is that they rent scooters at a good price. I try to find hotels that offer scooter rental, makes things easy. Take care, brother😎

This time has to be avoided if possible. Cannot understand the joy of congestion and inflated prices...🤔

I’ll be there on 10 January staying at the Night Bazaar Condotel for a week. Same as you, the anticipation is killing me. Safe travels!!
Was there last week. I've never seen CM so busy. Walked from the Lotus hotel to nimmanhaemin Road. It was quicker than using public transport.

Always good to see it heaving, Jon 🎉 ! About the GRAB, you should use MAXIM! That's still 90 Bath to LKR from home ! 😅
Ah nice, never heard of Maxim before I'll check it out, thanks Jaco :)
@jondcanton There are still advertisements all around Night Bazar and Loi Kroh Road !
I was supriced with the amount of Korean and Chinese tourists in ching mai a few weeks ago
I miss Thailand. Can’t wait to go back to my country and see the Thai gays
I love the walking
Beautiful lights tonight
Just watched after keis one recommended your channel on his video today.
Keeps going on about The Grab Prices, 300 Baht is £7 Pounds. 😀😀
Should be 90 baht
😮@@jondcanton
300 baht is expensive if you live there. 100 baht is more than enough.
your thought of buying 10000000 baht building and the rip off Grab weird
Way more busy on Mars ask Elon musk
