Chiang Mai

Chiang Mai is the second largest city in Thailand behind Bangkok, but it is much smaller. If temples are what you are after, then this is the city for you. Even though it is a tenth the size of Bangkok, Chiang Mai has almost as many temples. Chiang Mai is very relaxing and definately worth seeing. It has many attractions and houses the famous Night Bazaar.
