  • Welcome back to the channel, In this episode i head out after dark in the city of Chiang Rai, Thailand! Join me as I dive into the city’s nightlife, exploring the Golden Clock Tower, delving into the energetic Jetyod Road, and experiencing the bustling Night Bazaar area.
    🌟 As the sun sets, the magic begins at the Golden Clock Tower, illuminating the cityscape with its dazzling lights. This iconic landmark is a must-see, attracting both locals and tourists alike. 3 times a night the clock tower will light up a do a show. Join me as we witness the clock tower coming to life with colour and music.
    🍻 From there, we venture into the lively streets of Jetyod Road, the heart of Chiang Rai's red light bar area. This vibrant district is bursting with small bars and gogo night spots, pulsating with music and vibrant energy for a small city. Let's take a stroll through this cool nightlife hub.
    🌃 The adventure continues as we make our way to the renowned Night Bazaar area. Here, the vibrant night market comes alive, offering a Night Market vibe, with live music, food and a nice sized walking street. I explore the many stalls, where you can find everything from traditional crafts and clothing to delicious street food.
    🎉 Chiang Rai's nightlife is a blend of traditional charm and modern excitement. From the mesmerizing Golden Clock Tower to the electric atmosphere of Jetyod Road and the lively Night Bazaar, this city has something to offer for everyone. Whether you're seeking a taste of local culture, a vibrant entertainment scene, or simply a memorable night out, Chiang Rai will have something for everyone.
    Join me on this cruise through Chiang Rai's after-dark wonders! Let's dive into the magic of Chiang Rai's nightlife together! 🌙✨

    Am I the only one who’s finding Chiang Rai cleaner and well organized than Chiang Mai😀. Nice video Wayne , I liked the bar scene there, no pushy girls, no screams of handsome man, just chilled out. Btw , one thing I noticed, why they still wear masks

    • @WalkAboutWayne
      @WalkAboutWayne  Рік тому +3

      It is a bit more chilled in Chiang Rai for sure. People are even more relaxed. I still got a few massage shouts but nothing crazy. Thais love wearing masks, they just feel safer wearing masks. I still notice people quickly putting on the mask when they see me. People are still in fear of Covid here.

    The Hungry Wolf moved next to the river near Overbrook Hospital and the Riverie Hotel. While you are in the area you should stop at Wat Phra Kaew and go up the hill to the City Pillar Shrine. The main market is in that area as well and always worth a walk through.

    Wayne, I appreciate you keeping this channel exclusive free to watch and comment. It appears that some youtubers, once they've reached a certain target of subscribers it becomes a exclusive channel for paying members only! I would dearly love to finance other's travelling expenses, but I simply can't. Have enjoyed your objective style of presentation, and hopefully, will remain a comment contributor. Cheers, Lars.

    If you come on a Sunday, there is a night market in Chiang Rai that is similar to Chiang Mai. It is very large and if you come in November. In the night market area, there will be a park where winter flowers are displayed beautifully. especially at night😊
