Chiang Mai's Chinese New Year festival is intended to celebrate the New Year and to preserve the inheritance of Thai-Chinese traditions as well as to boost the tourism industry. The festival was held at Chinatown from 22-24th Jan 2012.
Chiang Mai's Chinatown is located in between Warorot Market and Ton Lamyai Market by the side of Ping River. It is perhaps the busiest shopping areas in Chiang Mai. The roads were closed for 3 days for the new year bazaar with rows of stalls selling a great variety of Chinese New Year goodies, clothes, shoes, fashion accessories, customary products and popular Thai food.
