Day 28 – Chiang Mai

28th April 2023

Today we still had a bit of road to reach Chiang Mai, so we headed off early once again. our first stop on our 4hr journey, was at the white temple which represent hell and rebirth, we visited it for a bit before getting back onto our journey.

After arriving in Chiang Mai, we went to lunch before going to our cooking class. We were first bought to the market to buy a few ingredients we were missing, like mangoes and tofu, before we came to the centre, with an outdoor kitchen in the extreme heat of Thailand. there we learnt to make 3 dishes, Thai green curry, Stir fry chicken and Pad Thai, as well as mango sticky rice for dessert. we learnt about all the ingredients we needed and prepared our own little dishes with the help of our instructor. after cooking for an hour and a half, we had everything ready and got to try out all the delicious foods we had made.

Next, we went to the night market where we walked around before our Thai boxing match, where we got to see 7 different pairs of fighters fight off, some of them men, some women some ladyboys.
