An hours drive out of Chiang Mai, Mon Jam village is at the top of a mountain. Make sure you practice your mountain driving skills before heading up there. Nice cool air, clean and crisp away from the pollution of the city. Magnificent views all around. Not much to do around there, so bring a picnic. Lots of flowers around, and a coffee shop as well. It's on the road after the Mae Sa Elephant Camp, so we do both in a day - 4 hours in the elephant camp, then the afternoon at Mon Jam to cool off.

Located only one hour's drive from Chiang Mai city center, this is a really nice place to visit to take advantage of the cool climate and the great scenery. Although there is parking not too much but you only need half an hour here so there is mostly places available. It's a great drive getting there with magnificent views of the mountainous countryside. The views are fantastic but many of the terraces are now covered with camping and glamping areas so that some of it now resembles a space station on a faraway planet. However, it's very popular particularly with Thai tourists but I can't help feeling that the local environment has been adversely affected by presumably an easier way of making money for the landowners. There is a flower garden for which there is an entry fee of 20-50 baht, a coffee shop where you can buy drinks and snacks and also some stalls selling local souvenirs, and there are toilets on site. A nice place to sit overlooking the valley below, before heading back to the heat of the city. I thought the best features were the local market and some flower fields. The market sold local fruit and vegetables with some of the finest avocados we have tasted. Persimmons, oranges, and pomegranates also were available. Cheap and very tasty! I did not stay overnight there, but I was able to experience the natural beauty, and appreciate how this must feel to stay in the simple lodgings overlooking this beautiful area.
A lot of flowers garden here. There's many spots that you can take a beautiful shot. Weather is seems a bit hot in afternoon
A must visit if you are in the area. Loads of Instagram moments in the beautiful gardens on the top of the mountain.
The most popular place in Chiang Mai. I think I should recommend this place to let you come to see the beautiful mountain.
