Description and is it worth a visit
Chinatown or Chinatown (China Town) is a small picturesque neighborhood near the river in Chiang Mai, which is mainly inhabited by immigrants from China. But to be honest, we did not notice here a clear special flavor inherent in Chinatowns in other Asian cities, such as Bangkok or Kuala Lumpur. Walking through this area, it is even difficult to notice the differences from other areas of the city, and except for the individual signs on the shops, you can understand that you are in a Chinese commune. But if you come here to take a walk during any traditional Chinese holiday, then you will see the life of the Chinese community in all its glory. There is also an interesting market here, where you can buy goods and souvenirs from China in the good sense of the word during the day, and in the evening there is a colorful food court and street fast food is sold. The famous Chiang Mai Flower Market also operates here.
