after coming back from elephant nature park, both of us showered and we walked out of the hotel to look for song theaw to bring us to doi suthep. song theaw is something like a taxi which is red in color, and can fetch up to ten pple.
luckily we saw an uncle with a song theaw at the main road. so we asked him whether can go to doi suthep. he give us a very bewildered look and stared at his watch. it was already 6 pm! hahahaha. it seems that nobody will go to doi suthep at night, everyone goes there in the day. but then he tell us to wait and he went to ask another driver, and that driver agreed, and off we go!
(darling inside the song theaw)
(asking the driver to take our picture with his song theaw. again i look super tanned beside darling. hahaha.)
before reaching doi suthep, we must first conquer a super long flight of steps. thank goodness both of us stayed in KE so the steps dont look daunting to us. haha.
doi suthep is very very peaceful at night. the night wind makes the temple very cooling, and the temple bells ringing make us feel very zen. hahaha. the golden monuments shone even more brightly at night but the construction works were quite a turn off.
there is a viewing platform outside the temple, and from the platform can see the city landscape of chiang mai. very very beautiful~
too bad my camera not good enough to capture the breath-taking night scenery. :(
after doi suthep we went to chiang mai night bazaar. we had our dinner at this seafood restaurant. it was already 9 plus and both of us were starving like hell. the food was not too bad, especially the prawn vermicelli that really taste awesome!
after dinner we have the energy to go shopping! din buy much. most of the stalls sell almost the same stuff. darling bought a top for her dad. i bought boxing shorts for leow and mak, because both of them are learning muay thai.
we end our last night in chiang mai with a full body massage. the massage shop is just outside our hotel. very convenient. haha.
