Kalm Village is an art, craft and culture center not far behind the Chiang Mai Gate market. Barbara told us about it and Dan checked it out. Sunday morning we walked over there (it opens at 9:30). What an amazing, beautiful place!
The first section we went into had a large display of handmade caned chairs. They are beautiful, many with multiple colors.
There is an interesting-looking restaurant, which wasn't open so early. But the coffee shop was. We had a drink and enjoyed the lovely ambiance. Beautiful pottery for sale along the back wall.
A library was upstairs from the coffee shop. Again, a nice relaxing atmosphere to sit and enjoy.
A display area had many clay water whistles. This is just one; they all had amazing designs. You can see a vase-like extension in the back. When it has water in it and the item is tilted, it whistles. A video screen demonstrated.
Three shops had beautiful textiles and home goods. I liked the dressing room!
Today is Tuesday morning in Thailand. I'll be heading home tomorrow. Dan will be staying on, as he enjoys the heat! Thanks for following along.
