[2025 Chiang Mai Shopping Mall] Travel Guide for Central Festival(Chiangmai) (Updated Jul)

🌟 The overall cost of living in Chiang Mai is much lower than in Bangkok. When you come here to play, besides exploring shops and enjoying the food, the most important thing, of course, is to shop till you drop! I've compiled a list of shopping districts and markets in Chiang Mai worth visiting, and of course, I've also identified some to avoid. These are all based on my personal experience and are just for reference! 🛍️ Shopping Centers: There are only two major shopping centers in Chiang Mai. One is the Maya Shopping Center near the Nimmanhaemin Road area, and the other is the Central Festival Chiang Mai, which is near the Yee Peng Market to the northeast of the old city. I suggest just going to Central, as it's very large and has many local clothing brands. I must say, Thai clothing is really vibrant! There's also a food court on the basement level with so many snacks you can't count them all! I'll give specific food recommendations in the next issue. MAYA Shopping Center, I think, is a dud💣. The mall is not big at all, and the brands are few and far between, similar to a shopping center in a small county in China. ⭕️ Shopping Districts: Although MAYA isn't great for shopping, the nearby Nimmanhaemin Road is definitely worth a visit. Nimmanhaemin Road Soi 1 is a plaza with an art park atmosphere, which also has many local brands and craft shops, as well as some trendy brands. If you're tired from walking, there's a 'lets relax' massage shop nearby, a famous chain brand. In the evening, there will be a night market in the plaza, and there's also a Michelin-recommended restaurant and many popular coffee shops. It can be said that everything Chiang Mai has to offer is here, and it's a place every visitor should go to. 🌴 Markets: I visited 4 markets this time. · Nimmanhaemin Road Soi 1 Market: Standard fare, not very big. If you're not already in the area, I wouldn't recommend making a special trip. · Yee Peng Market: Only open during the day on weekends. Even when it's not market day, it's still worth visiting for a photo op, as it's really picturesque. Everyone goes there not really to shop, but to take pictures... Accordingly, the market itself isn't that attractive. · Sunday Night Market: I chose the Sunday Night Market over the Saturday Night Market because the Sunday Night Market is near Tha Phae Gate, which is very convenient, and it's really super super super big, too big to finish exploring! The Saturday Night Market is in the south of the city, which was too far from where we stayed, so we didn't go. By the way, besides the night market itself, remember to visit the craft shops on both sides of the road. There are many handmade pots, pans, and ornaments that are really exquisite! I bought a lot to take home, they make great gifts and are very affordable to display in the house. · Chang Khlan Road Night Market: If you're staying near Tha Phae Gate, you can go for a stroll in the evening. It's mostly food and drink, and the novelty is that there are live band performances. Other than that, there's not much else. · The last regret is not going to JJ Market, which is said to be a gathering place for artistic products, and the recently popular Goods Goods is also there. Be sure to pay attention to the opening hours when you go! It basically ends in the afternoon, and I missed it because I overslept... 🌟 That's all for the shopping part, next time I'll recommend some local food that I found quite good!

#Christmas2022 The festival of happiness, Christmas🎄🌲❄️⛄☃️🌟🌟And the upcoming New Year festival, Central Chiang Mai, the largest shopping mall in the North, has decorated the tallest Christmas tree in the North. There are also lights, a big bear wearing a Santa Claus costume, and the G floor area on various shops has been arranged to be a beautiful area of ​​happiness for taking pictures.

#Southeast Asia travel #Chiang Mai travel This time, I will introduce you to the Thai luxury spa brand harnn. I visited it because it is located in Chiang Mai Maya Mall. I heard that Thailand is famous for spa brands, so I heard that their body oil products are good. I bought it while looking around because they also have a gift set. The number one product is said to be the White Tea Body Oil + Lotion. The scent is fragrant and feels luxurious. The cream is light and moist. How about shopping at Harnn in Thailand, the land of aroma?

A great rainy day activity, Central Festival cinema was top-notch. We got a huge bucket of popcorn to share (270THB). The cheese flavor was the 👌 best. It cost 600THB for a VIP sofa seat, which was very comfortable and had more than enough space for 2 adults and a 6 year old. #centralfestival #movies #chiangmai #thailand #nomadfamily #nomadlifestyle
