About this selection

Chiang Mai's Buddhist monastery culture and cooler mountain air create ideal conditions for deep meditation practice — an entirely different Thailand from the island south. January is one of Chiang Mai's best months for retreat — Northern Thailand's climate is at its most conducive to outdoor practice, the crowds are manageable, and teachers report that groups arriving in January tend to go deeper than at other times of year. It's a popular booking month, so plan ahead.
