According to Thai media on May 11, at present, the dusty situation in Chiang Mai Province, Thailand is gradually improving, and the fresh air and clear sky have also made the tourism atmosphere more lively. During weekends, the Jing Jai Market welcomes a large number of Thai and foreign tourists, especially Chinese tourists, who come here to admire and buy handmade art.
According to Mr. Phan Po, Chairman of the Chiang Mai Tourism Council, visiting Chiang Mai during the rainy season has gradually become a popular trend, and many people want to come during this period to experience the freshness and purity of nature. At present, more and more hotels are booked in the Chiang Mai area, and as many as 80% of the tourists are from Chinese mainland. The area is expected to be very busy in May and June, and with the Chinese school summer holidays and Japan's Golden Week approaching, 90,000 people are expected to fly to Chiang Mai for tourism.
He further said that 80% of Chinese tourists now prefer to travel independently, mainly because of the access to more information and the convenience of direct flights to many cities in China. Recently, Chiang Mai authorities also invited bloggers with millions of followers on China's Douyin platform to visit and experience local tourist attractions in order to attract more Chinese tourists.
