The Infinite Chiang Mai

San Sai

San Sai is a broad suburban district where city-edge development meets farmland and long-established villages. Shopping, schools and daily services cluster along the main roads, while quieter residential pockets sit between them. Routes 1001 and 118, together with the outer and middle ring roads, shape most commutes. A car or motorbike is normally needed, and travel time can change significantly depending on access to a ring-road junction. The area is strongest for detached houses, townhomes and land rather than central condos. Compare flood history, road frontage and distance to markets or schools when evaluating homes in less built-up tambons.
