🏮 Chiang Mai
The old walled city in the north is Thailand at a slower tempo — hundreds of temples inside a square moat, mountains rising behind, and a café culture that rivals anywhere in Asia. It is the country's most comfortable base for a longer stay.
Worth knowing: The cool season genuinely is cool here, unlike the south. Pack something warm for evenings between November and February.
