Big changes are happening at Tha Phae Gate in Chiang Mai, Thailand! 🐦🚫 In this vlog, I check out the city's latest crackdown on the famous (or infamous!) pigeons that have become a tourist attraction over the years. With new guards on patrol, strict no-feeding rules, cleaned city walls, and ongoing efforts to reduce the pigeon population, the area is already looking cleaner and more organized.
Join me as I walk around Chiang Mai's most iconic landmark, see the latest improvements, chat with locals, and share what's really happening on the ground. We also look at new flower beds, graffiti clean-up efforts, tourism updates, and how the city is preparing for the upcoming high season.
Will Chiang Mai finally win the battle against the "flying rats," or will the pigeons always return? Watch to find out—and let me know your thoughts in the comments!

Back in Chiang Mai! Join me for a walk around the Old City, Chiang Mai Gate and the south side as we catch up on the latest changes, local news and everyday life in Thailand.
In this Chiang Mai walking tour, we check out what’s changed at the moat, including the famous geese that have now been moved to a safer farm. We also discuss the old city walls, recent security concerns, underground electrical work around Nimman, construction, markets, street food and the latest tourist scene.
We’ll grab some food and coffee, catch up with friends, check out the pigeons, explore the streets and take a look at the latest motorbikes—including the green ADV that could be my next ride!
Plus, an honest chat about tourism, rising prices and why Chiang Mai still feels like home.
