The (other) Grand Canyon

[KaptainRob]

Escape the heat of Chiang Mai city by visiting Hang Dong Quarry, also known as the Chiang Mai Grand Canyon. Obviously, no way near measuring up to its American counterpart, the Chiang Mai Grand Canyon is a former quarry turned into a stunningly beautiful location for a fun day out.

Located roughly 45 minutes from Chiang Mai city centre in a small village. The canyon is carved out of red clay soil and is quite a sight to behold. Something a little different to add to your usual Chiang Mai itinerary.

Do they do helicopter trips over it  and how far from the nearest casinos ?   Seriously its been very many years since I was in Chiang Mai but have never heard of this site anyway but it looks a pretty site to visit
