RECREATION

Recreation

Re-energizing body and mind is the theme of all the activities arranged by the Aruntara and other specialized operators. Chiang Mai is considered by many as a quaint, traditional and somewhat spiritual city, in truth Chiang Mai City has developed into a modern, cosmopolitan and chic mini metropolis, and a smaller but much prettier alternative to Bangkok. With the existence of many temples, of which there are more than 300, this gives the city a genuinely traditional Thai ambiance. There are various activities around Chiang Mai and its neighboring provinces to enjoy such as a trip to Phrathat Doi Suthep temple. The temple is often referred to as Doi Suthep although this is actually the name of the mountain it is located on. The temple is located 15 km from Aruntara and is a must see for all visitors to Chiang Mai.

Other interesting activities:

Visiting Chiang Mai's Wats (Temples)

For those also seeking a rich cultural experience but closer to town, visits to some of the famous Chiang Mai temples are a must. Most of the temples are located in the old city, the most significant are Wat Chiang Man, Wat Pra Singh and Wat Chedi Luang. You can easily rent a bike or (if it's cool enough) walk to the majority of these temples.

Trekking

Many people come to Chiang Mai and its neighboring provinces to go trekking and for good reason, just out of town are a number of spectacular treks waiting to be experienced. You can go in a group, hire a private guide or if you like (and have adequate experience) go completely independently.

Hilltribes

Close by are accessible hill tribe settlements including Karen, Lisu, Lahu, Shan, Akha, Hmong, Palong and Mien Tribes. Their settlements are scattered all around the huge expanse of the Chiang Mai province. The ambiance within these villages is certainly one of harmony, and they definitely don't seem to be opposed to tourists coming to visit, but do bear in mind that these are real villages with real people, so please give them the respect they deserve and dress accordingly. Before heading off in pursuit of the hill tribes a good place to begin your observation of the different ethnic cultures experienced in this region is by visiting the Tribal Museum Featured are an array of handicrafts made by the tribal people themselves, and general background information regarding their cultures.
