Starting from our office in the vicinity of Chiang Mai's famous Tha Phae Gate, we immediately venture off the main road and down into the traditional quiet backroads.  Marvel at the variety of age-old temples, markets and alleys in the most historic neighborhoods with the city's stunning, lush mountain chains occasionally showing up in the background.

Venturing outside the famous city walls you will be amazed by how the “Rose of the North” shows its different, slower pace of life. Friendly locals greet us,  displaying Chiangmai’s legendary hospitality. Hilltribe communities settled outside the walls have brought their handicraft skills and go about their day as we pass by on our bicycle in these creative communities.
