    Go to Chiang Mai to see the shemale show to choose this because the performance is more excellent, the stage is more beautiful, but only Friday and Saturday available! Performers smiling to travel is to feel that way, if photography can be cheaper 20 Thai beads would be great! 50 Thai beads seem to feel more expensive than not so generous.

    There are several restaurants that are not bad, pure Thai local dishes, authentic taste; the girls in various small shops should like it very much; other alleys have various jewelry stores, massage shops, it is worth seeing and experiencing; the small bar is lively at night, there are more young local men and women, and the consumption is not high. Experience the local style.
