Chiang Mai (New
City ) was founded in 1296 by King Mengrai as the capital of the
first independent Thai state, Lanna Thai (Kingdom of One
Million Rice Fields). It became the cultural and religious center of the
northern Tai, those who had migrated from southern China
to dwell in Thailand ,
and remained so throughout the turbulent period of recurring Burmese attacks.
The Burmese finally captured Chiang Mai in 1556 and occupied it until King
Taksin retook the city in 1775, driving the Burmese forces back to near the
present border. Burmese influence on religion, architecture, language, cuisine,
and culture, however, remains strong. The city stands on the Ping River ,
a major tributary of the Chao
Phraya River .
Many activities in Chiang Mai area such as cooking class, Zip lining, sunset at
Doi Suthep do not miss night market.
