What are the best parking options for visiting the downtown art galleries?

Downtown offers several parking garages within walking distance of the art galleries, with reasonable hourly rates.

• You can also find metered street parking, but be sure to check the time limits, as they can vary throughout the area.

• If you're visiting on the weekend, some galleries might even validate parking for you, so it's worth inquiring when you arrive.

Practical Chiang Mai planning note: Only drive a car or motorcycle when your licence, insurance and experience are suitable for the vehicle and Thai road conditions. Wear a proper helmet on motorcycles, avoid mountain roads in poor visibility and never assume a rental agreement automatically provides adequate insurance.
