One of Chiangmai's great tourist attractions takes place in February every year.
The floral procession will set forth in the morning at Naowarat Bridge and then move slowly along the street – making several stops for performances and shows – down to the City Park. You will see many beautiful young Thai ladies perching atop each parade carriage. These gorgeous ladies are candidates of the Flower Festival Beauty Pageant which will be staged in the evening at the Park. Also on exhibit are various types of award-winning flowers and decorative plants.
Chiang Mai Flower Festival is one of the most famous events and is a total must see to all tourists headed to Chiang Mai. The event has drawn millions of tourist to the city aptly dubbed ‘The Rose of Northern Thailand’.
