Chiang Mai Province Tallers

While trying to decide what to experience in Chiang Mai, I found this place. It's an activity where you can make Ya Dom (Thai inhaler) and herbal balls, which are signature Thai products, so I decided to give it a try! It was very informative to learn about the characteristics and effects of each herb and to make them myself. Most importantly, the instructor was very kind and made it a pleasant experience. Since I made the Ya Dom and herbal balls myself, they feel even more meaningful and valuable to use. The store also sells herbal teas, oils, and balms, and their effects are really great! I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a fun and educational activity!

It was my first time trying yoga and meditation, and overall it was a unique and enjoyable experience. While there's plenty of information about meditation online, nothing compares to learning it in person. Hearing the instructor's calming voice, being surrounded by the peaceful atmosphere, and even taking in the scents of nature made the experience truly special. The only downside wasn't the activity itself—it was my own lack of research. I didn't plan my transportation properly, so I ended up paying an extra 1,000 baht for my driver to wait for me for three hours. That aside, it was a wonderful experience, and I'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking to relax and reconnect with themselves.

The most worthwhile part of my trip to Chiang Mai was this traditional Thai dance experience. It's a shame I didn't have more days, otherwise I would have loved to continue learning from the instructor. The instructor was incredibly gentle and patient. Even though there was a language barrier, the instructor's English, combined with body language and translation software, allowed us to understand and communicate smoothly. I truly loved this instructor. Before the dance class ended, they even prepared sliced mangoes and egg tarts, which was very thoughtful.
