As the holiday season ramps up, parts of Thailand are transforming into centres of celebration for Christmas and New Year. More accurately, there will be more IG-worthy places for a limited period of time. Malls have set up Christmas trees while a number of light installations around the country are set to give visitors a little light in the otherwise dark and difficult period we've all been through these past couple of months. If you're looking to visit one of these places for some holiday cheer but don't know where to start, Guru has you covered.
Thailand's first and only Christmas tree made from 2,000m of natural fabric is standing 14m tall at Kasalong Square in Central Chiangrai, until Jan 6 next year.
A cool breeze in the morning (you may not feel that yet in Bangkok), betokening the beginnings of winter. And as the temperature drops, floral parks across the country spring up and are in full bloom. It's high time for us to reconnect with nature after spending a good chunk of this year being cooped up. Be ready to satiate your Instagram feed with nature pictures while supporting the locals at farmer's markets as Guru has listed seasonal botanic gardens and flowery routes that you could appreciate while they last.
