- Is Chiang Mai Thailand worth visiting in 2022? Find out as we take you along for a full day exploring our favorite city in Thailand!
SUBSCRIBE to follow our 3-month adventure traveling Thailand full-time, and to be the first to know when a new Thailand travel vlog goes live!
In this Thailand vlog, we start our day in Chiang Mai Old Town to find out what’s open in 2022 and, unfortunately, what’s closed down. We find some new favorites, including delicious vegetarian Khao Soi and unique craft coffee, as well as visit an old favorite that survived the last two years. No visit to Chiang Mai Thailand is complete without visiting some beautiful temples, so we visit Wat Phra Singh and Wat Chedi Luang, plus give you a glimpse into Doi Suthep. We end our day with exploring the Nimman neighborhood, and yes, we answer your biggest question… How’s the Chiang Mai Sunday Walking Street (aka Chiang Mai night market)?
If you have any questions about traveling to Thailand in 2022, the Test and Go entry requirements or anything else, REACH OUT IN THE COMMENTS and we’ll reply soon.
We’ll see you in our next video as we KEEP GOING PLACES.

We FINALLY made it back to Chiang Mai, Thailand 🇹🇭 (one of our favorite cities in the world)! We hope you enjoy the walking and motorbike 🏍 tour of this beautiful community in 2022! Let us know if you have any questions 😊
Is there any pcr tests needed to travel to Chiang Mai?
If you’re already in Thailand, then no.
any recommended budget hotel in chiangmai?
I found your channel randomly via a RUclips suggestion. I watch a lot of Thailand vlogs and videos. I must say that, at least in this video (because I have not seen your other videos) you have captured some beautiful perspectives with bright colors, vibrant views, and your choice of angles and camera placement makes the video very attractive. It stands out among the crowd of folks doing videos in Thailand. The way the gold shines on the Buddha, the views of the canals, Monks sweeping and doing things, etc... all well timed and well captured. I just wanted to drop this note of thanks for the well done video. Thank you
Wow, thank you so much for the compliment! This means a lot to us since we strive hard to make great videos. Glad it’s showing!
Beautiful footage as usual, amazing suggestions for vegans/vegetarians, and it's always just so enjoyable to watch the chemistry you two share.
Doi Suthep is the main reason people travel to chaig Mai for and rightly so, the most beautiful temple in Thailand by far and the views over
Chiang Mai are stunning, this should have been shown
I've not watched your videos for a while. But your video quality has improved massively and I really love you're putting more info on your videos e.g prices. Time to binge watch all your previous videos. Keep up the great content.
Thank you so much! We’ve been putting in a lot of work and improving our skills so it’s nice to hear it’s being noticed. We’ll keep them coming!
Thank you guys for this honest and positive review of the city, thanks for showing my favorite temple in the world, Wat Chedi Luang, you made my day! Love how natural the story flows during the video. Send you luck from Chile.
Thank you so much; glad you enjoyed it 😊 Wat Chedi Luang is so beautiful!
I like you guys honesty/transparency thanks for all the tips. Hope things open up by October when I come
Thank you, we appreciate that. Glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully it’ll be fully open!
@@KeepGoingPlaces hey I know everyone does it already but can you do another living expenses video but about one here please 🙏🏽
What beautiful temples...I'm awestruck. I also like your opinions at the end of the vlog that the trip to Thailand is worth it if you're gonna stay a while, not for a short trip with all the uncertainty of the dreaded C word. I look forward to your next vlog of your travels in this beautiful country. I was very young when I visited Thailand back in the 70's so I can't remember much. But watching your wonderful vlogs brings back memories...
The temples and ambiance are incredible! Thank you, so glad you enjoyed the video!
Good to see you guys experience that southeastern Asia vibe again even though some places were closed 👍
The vibe is like no place else; we just love it! 😊
I've been looking forward to your Thailand postings and enjoyed this one very much. Although things have changed in Chiang Mai and entry rules are no longer the same since you filmed this several months ago, it is still great to see and will be looking forward to the next ones.
Thank you! Plenty more Thailand videos are currently in the works. Yep, trying to be current with how often the Thai government changes the entry requirements has been tough. Glad you enjoyed this video!
Now its 2023 and am here in Chiang Mai now in Jan..... Its definately worth coming and to feel & enjoy the smell joy and happiness of Chiang Mai
I've been in Chiang Mai for 5 weeks and I haven't seen any 7-11 stores that are closed, so there aren't many that are. (I started out in Phuket for a week and 95% of their 7-11s were closed.) I'm also in the Nimman area and I'm going to try Cheva & Chavee. FYI, I went to a great class at the Asia Scenic Thai Cooking School you pointed out, and it was so much fun! I asked specifically to be put into a busy class, and there were 16 of us.
The dipping sauce makes the donuts so be sure to get some when you go! Most of the closed 7-11s were inside the walls of Old Town. Enjoy CM!
I really enjoyed your video. 👌🏼
Great channel. 🤝 ⭐️
Greetings from Albania. 👋🏼🇦🇱
Thank you so much 😊
Welcome back hope 2 of you have a good experience here
Thank you!! 🙏 😊 🇹🇭
The temples are stunning!!
They’re beautiful!
Love Thailand what a place to be , thanks for the video !
Thanks! Such a fun place to explore for a few months! 🇹🇭
Awesome video! We’re in Bangkok right now and going to Phuket later this month but this video made us wish we had more time to explore and go to Chiang Mai.
Thanks, y’all! Definitely make it to Chiang Mai next time; you won’t regret it.
I've lived in Chiang Mai for 8 years and even with a big bike, I have barely scratched the surface of the events and attractions in Northwest Thailand. The dry Songkran this year was weird. I live in the Nimman area and usually we have very large Chinese tourist traffic. So it seems a bit dead. Back before the February unrest in Burma the covid numbers were so low it seemed like covid was under control but when the unrest started in Burma refugees and tribal people came thru the porous Thai/ Burma border. The south had more trouble with migrants than the North and fish markets were closed in BKK and at one point inter-provincial travel was not allowed in the 5 provinces surrounding Bangkok. Have a great time, BTW, Qingdao, China is a remarkable city if you're city hopping. It is where the 2008 Olympic Rowing and sailing events were held and it was occupied by both the Germans and the Japanese so it has an interesting area where there are German castles and Japanese style architecture. It is generally considered one of the top three Chinese cities for beauty.All the 7-11's on Hua Kaew are all open.BTW: Kao soi is Chinese in origin and the further South you go, the harder it is to find. An earthquake caused the damage to Wat Chedi Luang several hundred years ago.Happy Trails.
It was enjoyable and great video of Chiang Mai,important is to enjjoy every moment.
Thank you 😊 glad you enjoyed it!
loved your take on chiang mai...have you guys been to mae hong son...a little north of chiang mai...amazing little town...i think you'd love it...the whole town meets for a community dinner every night around a beautiful lake...and two awesome buddhist temples for blissing out...$10 a night gets you an incredible hotel overlooking the lake...so keep on truckin!
Thank you; glad you enjoyed it! We haven’t been, but now adding that Town to our next trip up north! Sounds like a memorable and unique experience. Thank you
Glad you made it back!! Love to visit one day.
😊 Felt so good being back in Chiang Mai. Hope you get to visit one day!
I really want to visit or even live in chiang mai in general, one, because my friend lives there, and two, just because I think thailand is just a beautiful place to be in. Thanks for this vid!
Thank you! 🙏 We could definitely live there too 😊
Loved the 🏍 tour ! - The 🥛 🍩 looked incredible & were actually fairly expensive by Thai prices but apparently a very worthwhile treat 😋. Never have seen a 7-11 closed. That's a bummer 😕. I wonder if Southland corporation owns them 🤔 - Keep Having Fun ! 👋
Thank you, David! Glad you enjoyed it. Those were definitely expensive compared to typical local prices, but made up with the $1.50 Khao Soi! 7-11s being shut down is very unusual. Looking forward to sharing the next video soon!
Of course 7-11 is not owned by Southland it is owned by CP which is a local conglomerate. Many outlets are franchises so those with financial issues have to close. Like all other countries Thailand is suffering from inflation that is affecting all kinds of costs for businesses, in turn they are forced to raise prices because after 2 years of economic mismanagement by the junta they are in precarious financial condition. And there is no expectation of an improvement any time soon.
I’m (finally) heading back to Chiang Mai in June. I’m hoping to make side-trips to Singapore and Cambodia while I’m there. Your video gave me some new places to go/try in Chiang Mai. Thank you.
Yay, that’s exciting! Glad you found our video helpful 😊 Enjoy your SE Asia adventures!
@@janemarch1984 Okay. 👍🙄
Hi Ashley and Jordan, very good video, your video are awesome. Thumb Up. Very detailed information with location pin dropped. I have visited Chiang Mai 4 times. The best way to move around the Chiang Mai city is to rent a small scooter and roaming around. I have produced some traveling videos in Chiang Mai, but your videos are way much better than mine. I was using GoPro Hero 6 camera for my blog. Your video, sharpness, and night scene are way better than mine. Can you share, what video camera you used for this video production? Thanks a lot. Stay safe and have a wonderful time! Sending greetings with good luck from Singapore.
Hi Peter, thank you so much for the compliments and well wishes! We love Chiang Mai and agree that a motorbike is the best way to explore the city and surrounding area. We listed our filming gear on our website here: keepgoingplaces.com/our-gear/best-travel-vlogging-gear-and-equipment-for-youtube/ . We used the Sony camera and lenses, the GoPro Hero 9 listed, and our drone.
Thank you for the tips. Just booked a flight to Chiang Mai, for tomorrow. We are in Bangkok right now and wanted to go to southern Islands next, but because of Rain all day there at the moment. Chiang Mai Looks perfekt.
Yay, hope you have a wonderful time!
You have us wanting to visit for our honeymoon in 2023! 😀
Do it!!! We just love CM (and Thailand)!
OK, you talked me into it. I’ll be arriving September 2 for 8 weeks. I’ve read, barring another Covid spike, Thailand should have all restrictions gone except for possibly the Covid insurance by July. I’ve got a house between Chiangmai and San Kamphaine that I haven’t visited in almost 4 years. The same goes for Thai friends. Looking forward to it.
😂 Glad we were convincing enough! Enjoy your visit back to Thailand 🇹🇭 4 years is a long time!
Ofcourse there will be more covid spikes it's a mutating viral disease like flu , it's constantly going to be evolving , but so will our immunity , the sooner these world governments realize this and just let the world get going again and heal all the extra poverty created by this the better , sadly Thailand seems to be way behind in this belief compared to Cambodia and Vietnam .... It's the Thai people that rely on tourism that I feel sorry for
Remember Thailand is ruled by a military junta who are using Covid as an excuse to continually extend the state of emergency. So don't plan on any restrictions being removed. Already they are backtracking on declaring the virus endemic by July 1st. There are so many businesses that have closed permanently and of course bars & entertainment venues have been closed for over a year although some have reopened as restaurants. Life here is dull, people see no light at the end of the tunnel. Enjoy your return.
More Thailand vlog. ❤️ Are you guys riding to pai and mae hong son too?
Nope, we’ll have to save those for our next trip to Thailand 🇹🇭
Aroy dee restaurant is in ' moon muang ' market also known as ' Som Phet' market.
Thanks! It’s delicious and a great area
ผมคนเชียงใหม่ ยินดีต้อนรับนักท่องเที่ยวทุกคน เที่ยวให้สนุก
Love the video! Have you got any other recommendations for vegetarian food in Chiang mai? 😊
Just discovered and subscribed to your channel. Brings back good memories of living in Chiang Mai. Greetings from Koh Samui. How long will you be in Thailand?
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the video! 3 months in Thailand 🇹🇭
My first trip to chiang Mai 1960 still love chiang Mai very much
Wow, it must be fascinating seeing how the city has changed since then!
@@KeepGoingPlaces Changed a lots
@@KeepGoingPlaces Now I live in Bay Area since 1974 near San Francisco
We saw photos of Chiang Mai in Wat Prah Singh from the 1950s and it looked wildly different. I believe there was a photo of Songkran from that time too, which was neat.
@@watsonthai177 I live in San Bruno but have a house in Chiang Mai Hang Dong area. What was it like in 1960? I was born in 1962 and know what the Bay Area was like in the 60’s until now. It was better before!
Beautiful vlog ❤ sad to see what the pandemic has done to CM 😢
Thank you so much; glad you enjoyed it! It's very sad to see the impact on the locals and their businesses. Hopefully, they will bounce back soon and tourists start to visit again like before.
This was a favorite restaurant of mine:
QXWV+25J, Tambon Si Phum, Mueang Chiang Mai District, Chiang Mai 50300, Thailand
Planning to also visit Chiang Mai next year. May I ask when was this filmed?
This was filmed around Feb. 1st. Enjoy your trip!
The River Market Restaurant is top quality and will take a lot of beating 🙏🇬🇧 unless you are cheap Charlie’s
I love Chiang Mai 💚❤️✨🌼

I like Chiang Mai. Thanks for the lastest update!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you 😊
Been to chang mai in August great place very cheap good place to live from Scott new Zealand
Where do you recommend staying in Chang Mai for a first time so traveler? Is the old city a good idea? Also do you think that 2 week is too long
Looks so Kool!
It was a blast!
hello if you have some 4 days in Bangkok will you recommend do 2 days in Chian Mai ?
great video!! Is july a good time to visit chiang mai with family? i am planning trip to thailand in july and want to visit this place, Can you suggest what places will be good to visit in july with kids. Thank you.
Hi Rohni S, the best time to visit Chiang Mai will be around December to February. It is a cold season and high season. I have visited Chiang Mai a total 4 times. I am not sure do you like animals? This is a place to visit will be Tiger Kingdom, Monkey School in Mae Rim. Another place to visit will be Doi Inthanon National Park. The highest mountain in Thailand. Many nature waterfalls. I hoped this help. Cheers
Thanks! We’ve never been in July, but that’s after the Smokey season which is good, but it’s the height of the rainy season, which isn’t so great. If you’re flexible enough to deal with the rain, then you may be fine with it.
I hope you guys will visit philppines
In 2022, 7/11 Closed in Thailand?
Well, they out of business in Indonesia couple years ago.
Any tour guide recommendations going there in Dec ?
Just curious, it seemed like in so many store fronts it was common to see English words--did most of your communication with locals take place in English?
Yes, most locals in the places tourist tend to visit will speak some or fluent English. But, the further off the touris track you go, the less English will be spoken.
We.lcome again.Good luck to two .😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
Is the area namon aint sure the spelling far from the old time ... Good video BTW
Thank you! Nimman is not far at all. It’s a very short drive West of the Old Town .
@@KeepGoingPlaces thanks for the reply 👍🙏
Thank you
like your channel.... have you got an address for "good local thai "restaurant . many thanks
Harees hameer ali. Power 😂😂.

Buy spray for protection mosqito 50baht at 711 8 hours protection
ginamit mo na ba yannah?
Wat Phra Singh is blinding with all of that gold trim. I'm not sure if I ever visited it in the past, but I will now.
How come that with all of this yummy food that the American phase “Tastes so good, make you wanna slap yo momma” never escapes your lips? Or do you say it off camera, in order to stay in your mom's good books?
How are the elephants doing? omg I forgot about them..
We honestly don’t know. We did not visit any this trip, but hopefully someone else can share info if they have it!
At least one large well known elephant camp is in dire straits and unable to feed them correctly. Already 20 have died from poor nutrition and I'll health. These camps are an abomination and animal welfare is far from good. They ought to be abolished.
🙏❤️
Come to Pai Thailand hot springs spa and resort
oooooo
24 hours just doesn't seem like a reasonable period to judge any place.
