Why train in Chiang Mai

Northern Thailand's slower pace - cooler mornings, temple culture, and a growing camp scene away from the coast. Lanna culture, lower costs than Phuket, and gyms that favour consistency over tourist drop-ins. Smaller local cards and regional shows - less glossy than Bangkok, more authentic northern scene.
