  • Today I take you along on my journey to an enchanting location in Chiang Mai Old City in Thailand. If you're seeking a unique and unforgettable experience in Chiang Mai, then look no further. Nestled within the heart of the historic Chiang Mai Old Town, Jaidee Huts offers an extraordinary escape like no other. As soon as I arrived, I was greeted by the mesmerizing sight of beautiful bamboo huts, creating a serene and authentic atmosphere.
    One of the many things that impressed me about Jaidee Huts is its prime location. Situated in the heart of Chiang Mai Old Town, you'll have easy access to all the incredible attractions and landmarks the city has to offer. Whether you want to explore the historic temples, stroll through the vibrant night markets, or indulge in the local street food, everything is just a stone's throw away from your bamboo oasis.
    Not only is Jaidee Huts an exceptional place to stay, but it also boasts a fantastic in-house restaurant. After a day of exploring, you can treat your taste buds to an array of mouthwatering Thai delicacies and international dishes. From traditional pad Thai to flavorful curries, each bite is a culinary delight. The restaurant's cozy atmosphere and friendly staff create an unforgettable dining experience.
    Chiang Mai Old City is known for its charming ambiance, rich history, and warm hospitality. And Jaidee Huts truly captures the essence of this magical place. Whether you're a solo traveler, a couple seeking a romantic getaway, or a group of friends looking for an adventure, this hidden gem will exceed your expectations.

    In Thai, they do not have a word that literally translates to 'kind'; instead they said 'jai dee' meaning 'good heart' If someone is kind to you and you want to let her/him know, in Thai you can simply say Khun Jai Dee Maak which means you are very kind.

    Another good one Wayne. Nice place & good to know about. I prefer less expensive. I have no criticism of this place though; it's A-OK & by western standards very well priced. I prefer a place like you showed in indigenous neighborhoods. $100. Month. Leaves lots of dough to eat, clothes, etc. Not to mention having a fat little kitty for a rainy day. You never know what's coming around the corner as far as unexpected expenses. I find a great deal of comfort in knowing if the shit hits the fan I have the dough to deal with it. At times like that you may find yourself wishing you didn't drop a large part of your income on higher rent because they have a pool & gym. If you have deep pockets & it's no burden on your finances, more power to you! I need a clean place to sleep & shower, not much more. That's me; i fully respect other ppl's choice of lifestyle. No condescension at all! Go Wayne! 👍đŸ‡č🇭â›Ș🏡â›ș😁
