                <description><![CDATA[We're obsessed with our weekly massages in Chiang Mai, and have been all over the place trying out new places. We still believe the massages just outside Wat Umong are the best in Chiang Mai.

                <description><![CDATA[What a breath of fresh air this place is, a really laid back, cool and hassle free bar in the pulsating heart of the Chiang Mai city. <br><br>Designed by renowned UK designer 'Simon somebody' (sorry I forgot his surname) The What Bar is super easy to relax and unwind in. <br><br>As a play on words, The What takes its name from The Thai word for Temple (Wat) and like a temple to cool, it welcomes travelers and expats in to the warmth of its embrace. <br><br>The food is excellent, the atmosphere tolerant and arty, it really is worth stopping in for a meal or one of its famous pool tournaments. I highly recommend checking this place out if you are within 50 km of Chiang Mai. <br><br>The What is located on Loy Kroh road, within walking distance of the Night Bazaar and Thapae Gate. Look for the sign which is a play on the symbol used by the UK band The Who. <br><br>Well worth a visit.]]></description>
