Its attractions are more accessible than in Bangkok as it is possible to cover most of the city by bike or on foot. Bicycles can be hired from the guesthouses. April to June is very hot and September is the rainiest month so best to avoid these times. Cheap, friendly accommodation for travellers is readily available. Chiang Mai is much more laid back than Bangkok, making it a more appealing place to visit in some ways. The city centre is surrounded by a moat and the ruins of the original city walls. Surrounded by mountains, Chiang Mai is quite atmospheric and makes a good base if planning to explore north Thailand. Chiang Mai has an international airport and is on a train line linking it to Bangkok.
