I've just read the news from the Department of Meteorology here in Thailand, and they say we're in for the coldest winter in 30 years, jing jing.
Last week the mercury struggled to get to double digits, reaching only 10 degrees at Doi Inthanon in Chiang Mai province.
Woohoo! I love the winters here ... a chance to enjoy beautiful warm days but cool and even crisp evenings, pull a sweater or leather jacket out of mothballs, and throw on a scarf. Yes, that's right, this is another side to the tropical Thailand that you know. For maximum effect, head to places like Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Pai, Mae Hong Song, Doi Mae Salong, and Doi Tung. Or even Khao Yai just 2 hours north of Bangkok.
November through to January is the popular winter season up north, so make your plans today before everywhere is booked out.
This is an Amazing Thailand travel blog (as a gateway to the greater Mekong region) with insider reviews of hotels in Bangkok, Pattaya, Koh Samui, Phuket, Chiang Mai and beyond. Tips on how to travel Thailand, and where to travel in the Thai kingdom. So use JING JING to plan your travel to Thailand -- ie flight to Bangkok -- find the best time to travel for festivals, Muay Thai, a local Thai Thai restaurant, and lots of fun stuff the Thais are famous for from Patong to Patpong to Phitsanuloke.
