    Around 5pm, the afternoon market begins, selling various kinds of foods. The market only occurs on Ramadhan month. An ice cream seller waiting for customer next to some beggars who some of them are kids. Many of those beggars brought along their kids to beg for money. It would increase the compassion for some money-givers.: by arifsetiawan, Views[520]
         		 Hidayatul mosque, the biggest mosque in Chiang Mai during iftar, the moment when Moslem breaking from their fast. There are only 7 Mosque in Chiang Mai, and one to another quite far away.

         		 Another unexpected twist was witnessing a gathering at a local temple for the Sunday prayers. What was unexpected was to see traditional musicians and dancers at a temple rarely seen by tourists. As we watched from a overhead walkway, we felt like eavesdroppers in a spiritual communication. Of course that didn’t stop me from clicking this photo before scurrying away. : by nivi, Views[185]
         		 The lotus, so much a part of their culture is seen throughout; in their art, architecture and in pots strewn across the city.

    The cultural aspect of the city has also been incorporated into their daily schedule. For a country that thrives on tourism you expect to see the infamous lady boys performing a lively show. What amazed me was the amount of traditional folklore that is incorporated into the show. The show embodied the strong cultural ties they maintain in the modern day Thailand.: by nivi, Views[198]
