Shopping

Locally Baan Tawai is often thought of as 'something that's there for the tourists', but as Pim Kemasingki reports, that's far from the case.

Looking for a very different shopping expereince in Chiang Mai? Citylife looks at shopping how it used to be done... and still is!

A huge thank you to the Tourism Authority of Thailand (Chiang Mai) for organising this fabulous trip and to AirAsia for generously sponsoring our flights.

Over the next three years, Chiang Mai will become home to yet more malls, with huge developments and small boutique malls about to pop up all over the city.

A look at some of Chiang Mai's best, original fashion boutiques where designers crate a fusion of traditional Lanna influences with contemporary couture.
