will also take recs for food -reasonable prices and nightlife recs.
Anyone know when they will stop burning the crops up here so the smog isn't so bad?
Check out Doi Pui mountain village at the top of doi suthep and also Phuping Palace, my parents really enjoyed that.
also tiger Kingdom is really good, that's on the way to the elephant camp I think.
For food you should take them to The Riverside before 7.30pm and you can get a seat on their boat that takes you up and down the river for a couple of hours whilst you eat. it's like 70baht per person or something. get there early to get a seat though.
Another nice place to take the family is the Whole Earth restaurant, really close to the night bazaar. It's Thai/Indian fusion and the setting is really nice. It's slight more pricey than standard places though.
Think the smokes gonna be here for at least another month
