This legendary
country-style resort, situated at an elevation of 700 metres above
sea-level, is famous for its beautiful botanical gardens and flower park
extending over 20 acres of charming countryside in the southern valley of
the twin peaks of Doi Suthep-Pui in Chiang Mai. In the midst of the
serene, picturesque landscape of mountains and lush evergreen forests, the
floral splendour of the botanical gardens and flower park is a spectacular
miracle of nature to be enjoyed.
The sight and sound of
flowing water adds to the dramatic scenery that surrounds the resort. A
waterfall cascades down a rugged cliff-face into a stream – a tributary of
the Ta Chang River that flows through the resort all year round. Natural
fountains dance in the cool breeze. The intrinsic beauty of
Krisdadoi Chiangmai’s mountainous setting and its landscaped gardens makes
the resort, a true paradise for nature lovers.
:: A "Dream Resort"
and "Mountain Paradise" ::
The brainchild of an
entrepreneur and property developer, Krisdadoi Chiangmai was initially
built as a private retreat and dream resort for family and friends. The
weekend vacation home, comprising nostalgic European-style country
cottages set in the midst of acres of botanical gardens, was soon
welcoming a steady stream of guests. By popular request, the private
retreat evolved into a boutique resort project - the first of its kind in
the Hangdong-Samoeng districts of Chiang Mai. Known simply as the
Krisdadoi Chiangmai, the botanical gardens and the flower park finally
opened its doors to the general public. Twenty years later, Krisdadoi
Chiangmai remains one of Chiang Mai’s unique attractions and a destination
resort in its own right.
