Answer

A favourite spot for picnics is Huay Tung Tao Lake. You can set up under one of the charming bamboo huts, enjoy the serene environment, and take in the lovely mountain views.

• Another great option is the gardens at the Royal Park Rajapruek. With beautifully landscaped areas, it's perfect for a relaxing day with family or friends. You can grab some local snacks and just unwind in nature.

Practical Chiang Mai planning note: Confirm current routes, fares, operating hours and pick-up arrangements before travelling. Build in extra time for traffic, weather and festival road closures, and keep the destination name or map pin available in Thai for drivers when practical.
