Activities during Chiang Mai Flower Festival

Floral arrangements, miniature trees, ornamental plants, and flowers are all on display for the judges to choose the winner.

Although the large flower floats compete in creativity and beauty, the most popular contest is the beauty pageant to crown the Queen of Chiang Mai Flowers.
