Getting started
Enter the Chiang Mai Cultural Centre with your Non-Thai Visitor Admission Ticket and proceed directly into the main galleries. Start your visit by checking the layout and choosing a path that suits your interests and timing. You move independently through the venue without a guided tour, so you can decide how long to spend in each exhibition area.

Chiang Mai Cultural Centre
This visit focuses on the Chiang Mai Cultural Centre galleries, where permanent exhibitions trace the city’s story from its founding to the present day. As you move through the spaces, you learn how Chiang Mai’s architecture, traditions, and cultural significance developed within the wider context of Northern Thailand.
