Uday asked:

Hello all,

I am planning for a 15 day visit to Thailand and I am planning to spend about a week in Chiang Mai area.

I am planning to see temples, spend a day at elephant sanctuary and do some day trips out of Chiang Mai or visit one of the hill tribes if possible. I am also planning to rent a bike and do some trips out of Chiang Mai.

I want to know how is the weather like in Chiang Mai in mid July? Is it a good idea to visit in July?

Thanks.
