Old Town exploration

Walked around the Old Town part of Chiang Mai - inside the walls. There must be thousands of guest houses here - how do they all stay in business - and some have rooms as cheap is 150B (less than $5)!! There are wats on every corner - walked out to explore some of the larger ones - Wat Chiang Man and Wat Phra Singh - stopping in to peak at some of the smaller ones along the way. Also stopped in at the Arts and Cultural Center and Museum - really good overview of the city and its past. Of course snacked along the way - found a woman who makes the best fried banana fritters in town, and had an excellent dragon fruit shake. And tried my first mangosteen - yum yum. After a nap, feel refreshed and we're out to explore the night markets. Am looking forward to foodie and other treats.
