=================== 4. Hmong Hilltribe Village ====================
- The Mae Sa Hmong Hill Tribe village is one of the closest Hmong settlements to Chiang Mai.
- The Hmong came to Thailand about 100 years ago from Laos.
- By Hmong standards, this village is fairly small with only about 400 inhabitants.
- Most of Thailand's ethnic Hill Tribes prefer to live at altitude, and the Hmong even more so, and this village is situated high up in the mountains within the boundaries of the Doi Suthep - Pui National Park.
- Access by car is easy as the road, whilst narrow, is well paved.

Tha Phae Gate
Tha Phae Gate is the eastern gateway into the old city of Chiang Mai. The name "tha phae" means "raft landing", and refers to a time when people would arrive in the city of Chiang Mai on raft. In those ancient times, the entire 750 meters of the east side of Chiang Mai was protected by a moat and a wall. Tha Phae Gate was the only entrance, via a bamboo drawbridge, into the city. Today, the drawbridge has been replaced with a causeway. As for the gate itself, what you see today is not as old as you might possibly imagine it to be.
