What to expect in November

🎯 Harvest season — fresh local produce at markets and restaurants Autumn in Chiang Mai is often underrated: 29°C, golden light and declining crowds. An interesting window. Expect rain on 30% of days — a light raincoat in the bag is recommended. A good balance between weather and crowds, even if December (9.0/10) remains theoretically better.
