Saraphi

Saraphi retains a semi-rural character despite steady suburban growth. Local markets, temples, schools and agricultural land sit among newer housing developments, giving the district a quieter rhythm than central Chiang Mai. Route 106 and parallel local roads connect Saraphi with Chiang Mai and Lamphun, while ring-road links improve access to other suburbs. Most households need a private vehicle for work, school and shopping trips. Detached houses and land are the main choices. Review drainage, road width, utilities and travel time during rush hour, particularly for properties in orchard areas or smaller lanes away from the main road.
