Chiang Mai Relaxation 02｜Dance with Pigeons at Tha Phae Gate

No amount of online praise can compare to seeing it with your own eyes 😍

🧱 With over 700 years of history, the weathered orange-red city walls exude a unique sense of "destiny" that many admire. Each of the four gates has its own story to tell!

🕊️ The most talked-about activity is "dancing with pigeons," which has become a popular photo spot and a memory anchor for many. While tourist attractions often come with their own photography industries, this is the first time I wholeheartedly agree and highly recommend it. If you're in Chiang Mai, you must star in this life-sized blockbuster 😎

📷 I highly recommend the couple nicknamed "Tha Phae Gate Daniel Wu." The man himself is tall, dark, and easy to recognize. They're usually there from early morning until noon, as he has to work in the afternoon to support his family. Despite this, he enthusiastically directs photos that may seem cheesy but turn out stunning, capturing a free-spirited vibe with a touch of old-movie solitude 🥰 I'm beyond satisfied!

💯 You can also explore the straw-weaving street, Warorot Market, and the Sunday Night Market. I've heard that Chiang Mai's cheapest drugstore, Win, is nearby too. Call me a tourist if you want, but I absolutely love it! 💕 Totally worth it!
