Chiang Mai - vùng đất từng là thủ đô của vương quốc Lanna. Là vùng đất linh thiêng với hàng trăm ngôi chùa cổ và những công trình in dấu thời gian. Ngày nay Chiang Mai còn được biết đến là địa điểm du lịch hấp dẫn bật nhất Thái Lan nói riêng và châu Á nói chung. Tuần này, mọi người hãy cùng Khoai khám phá thêm về vùng đất đặc biệt này nghen. - Bắt đầu ngày mới bằng món khao soi. Đây là 1 món ăn truyền thống và rất đặc trưng của miền bắc Thái Lan. Khoai rất ấn tượng với màu vàng đặc trưng của khao soi, đó là sự hoà quyện giữa sợi mì trứng, mì trứng chiên giòn và nước sốt với màu vàng cà ri đặc trưng. Khao soi thường được nấu với thịt gà, đôi khi là thịt bò hoặc thịt heo. Món này khá cay, béo và nồng gia vị nên sẽ ăn kèm dưa cải chua để cân bằng hơn. Một tô khao soi ở đây có giá là 50 baht (~36.000 đồng).
- Sau đó Khoai ghé 1 quán ăn rất thú vị của 2 cô chú lớn tuổi. Không gian quán nhỏ nhỏ, kiểu xưa cũ, cô chú bán món bún huyết và đá bào truyền thống. Món bún huyết trong tiếng Thái gọi là Khanom chin nam ngao. Nước súp bún huyết gồm thịt heo, huyết nấu chung với nước sốt cà chua và nhuỵ hoa gạo. Nhìn nồi súp đỏ au những tưởng sẽ rất cay, nhưng không hề, đó chỉ là màu sắc do cà chua kết hợp với nhuỵ hoa gạo thôi. Ăn kèm còn có 1 loại rau rất đặc biệt, đó là rau sống rắn dây. Ở miền Tây mình cũng có loại rau này, nhưng rất ít người biết đến. Giá cả 1 tô bún huyết chỉ có 50 baht (~36.000 đồng), 1 chén đá bào là 40 baht (~29.000 đồng).
- Chùa Wat Chedi Luang là một trong những ngôi chùa cổ và linh thiêng nhất Chiang Mai. Công trình đặc sắc nhất là ngôi chùa cổ được xây dựng từ năm 1391 và toà bảo tháp 84m xây dựng năm 1475, được cho là nơi cất giữ tro cốt của cha của nhà vua Saen Muang Ma. Nhưng một trận động đất năm 1545 đã phá huỷ 1 phần nên hiện tại bảo tháp chỉ còn cao khoảng 60m. Giá vé dành cho khách du lịch là 40 baht (~ 29.000 đồng). Cách đó không xa là một ngôi chùa cổ khác, đó là chùa Wat Phantao. Chùa được xây dựng từ cuối thế kỉ 14, nổi tiếng vì được xây dựng hoàn toàn bằng gỗ teak đen.
Vì clip khá dài nên Khoai xin phép cắt ra 2 phần để mọi người xem đỡ ngán hơn, có gì nhớ góp ý Khoai nha, chúc mọi người xem clip thiệt vui.
__ Mình là Khoai. Thích du lịch và ăn uống.
Hi, good morning everyone. I'm Khoai. Welcome to Khoai Lang Thang channel
The first dish for today is Khao Soi
Khao Soi is one of the traditional dishes of Northern Thailand
If you come to Chiang Mai or Chiang Rai province in Northern Thailand
You must try it
And I've ordered a bowl of Khao Soi here
It's still very hot
At the top, you can see a layer of crispy fried egg noodles
And a lot of chicken meat at the bottom
I call this part chicken meat
Khao Soi is usually eaten with chicken meat or a whole chicken thigh
And sometimes you will see Khao Soi made from beef and pork
At the bottom, you will see a part of coconut milk
It's still white
A little bit of herbs
And at the bottom is the egg noodles
At the bottom is egg noodles, at the top is crispy fried egg noodles
This dish is special in that place
And you can see the sauce
It looks quite spicy and fatty
This sauce will taste like Thai yellow curry
It has chili oil color
And it will be very thick
Just like curry
When eating, I just mix it up
Mix it up
This is chicken
She has cut the chicken into pieces for easy eating
In most other places, I see they put a whole chicken thigh
I will try the sauce first
The sauce is very fragrant, the smell of coconut milk
And a little bit of chili oil
And it has the smell of curry
The smell of coriander seeds is very clear
The taste will be more sweet, almost like the yellow curry in Vietnam
But here they use more chili in curry
Because when I taste this sauce, I will feel the smell of chili
The smell and spicy taste of chili immediately
Oh, it's so spicy
The yellow curry in Vietnam is almost the same as the yellow curry
Or Thai Masaman curry
But in Vietnam, we use less chili
Less chili and less curry seasoning
Mainly use turmeric to make color
So Vietnamese curry is easier to eat
And here, you will see the curry has a stronger seasoning
It will be more spicy
And it will have more smell of coriander seeds
I will put this tomato in
Because this dish will be a little bit fatty
Because this dish will be a little bit fatty, I will put all this tomato in
I won't put shallot in because I don't like to eat raw shallot
Put a little bit of lime in
And put a little bit of chili to make it sour
Mix it all
Take a chopstick with chicken
The egg part and the fried egg
It absorbs the water of the sticky rice
And the sour taste of tomato
It's very interesting when you eat this egg
Then there is a little bit of fried egg
It will make the dish more crispy and less greasy
Although this dish is very greasy
And very strong seasoning
But this tomato makes everything balanced
Normally, when I eat sticky rice
I like to hold the chicken thigh to bite more
But it's a pity that she has cut the thigh into small pieces
So spicy
I have ordered a glass of water
This water
The taste will be like Vietnamese Sam Bo Luong
If you come here to eat sticky rice and it's too spicy, you can order a glass of water and drink it together
Only 20 baht or about 15,000 VND
Sticky rice is one of the most famous dishes in the north of Thailand
But it has a lot of similarities with the sticky rice dishes in Laos or Myanmar
Actually, the origin of this dish also has a lot of hypotheses
Some people said that
Because of the Muslims, they brought this dish here
And some people said that this dish was influenced by Myanmar and the Burmese
But thanks to the development of Thailand's tourism
So the Thai sticky rice dish is the most famous in the world
And the sticky rice in Laos or Myanmar is not as famous
Not because it's not delicious
But because it doesn't have a strong tourism development
Now I will focus on eating my sticky rice dish
Then I will take you to eat the next dish nearby
Today is just a day of eating
Many specialties of Thailand will be introduced today
Please wait for me
In Thai, you call...
Khao nom chin
Khak nom chin
Khak nom
Chin
Khak nom chin
Yeah, yeah, Thai language
Khak nom chin
And there will be blood inside
There is meat
Pork
And it will be cooked with tomato sauce
Along with the...
...tendon of...
...rice flower
Can you see the water is very red?
And I will put a little shallot
Along with fried garlic
And especially, I will eat it with fresh basil leaves
Pickles
A little bean sprouts
And lime
The next dish I will introduce to you is blood noodles
One of the dishes that is very popular and famous in the north of Thailand
Allow me to speak in Vietnamese
Because the pronunciation in Thai is very difficult
I just asked him how to read it
But I really read it all the time and it was very funny
And this is a shop of 2 old ladies
She is standing on the stone over there
And he is selling blood noodles here
I have ordered my blood noodles bowl here
You can see
There is broth below
This broth is cooked from...
...pork
...pork blood
Along with tomato sauce
And especially, they will put in here the flavor of rice flower
The flavor of rice flower is one of the ingredients that make this dish have a special flavor
There is a little fried garlic
Shallot
Ah, there is a piece of tomato, you see?
When I eat, I will mix it up
Suddenly looking at this dish, it reminds me of the rice noodles in Saigon
But for rice noodles, there will be shrimp paste, but not here
Just mix it up, then I will put this in
This is a very special tree
This tree is called the long-lived tree
This tree is also very common in Vietnam, but Vietnamese people rarely eat it
Thai people often use this dish to eat with blood noodles
I will tear this and put it in
Remove the stem, the stem will be a bit tough
It has a smell like you eat...
...young basil leaves
Or the young bean sprouts
It's firm, but if you eat it with braised fish sauce or rice fish sauce
The rice fish sauce is very appetizing
Um
In the countryside, I have to ask my mother to pick this leaf to eat
Because I haven't eaten it for a long time
In the past, when I was in the countryside, my mother often picked this leaf
To eat with rice
Normally, in the West, people often pick dozens of kinds of leaves to collect
Then eat raw or to cook soup
But this is just for eating raw
Ah, in Thailand
In Thailand, they also use this leaf to fry with eggs
That is also a dish that many Thai families often use
Add a little bean sprouts
And pickled vegetables
Pickled cabbage is very popular in the north of Thailand
Even in Asia, almost all countries use this pickled cabbage
And add a little lemon
Then I will mix it all up
This soup will be warm and hot, not hot like other dishes
Um
Sour, salty, sweet, quite easy to eat
And the taste of the pickled cabbage is also quite special
And the taste of the tomato juice is quite clear in this
I will feel the taste of the tomato juice when I taste it
You just saw the broth pot
Very dark red and looks like a lot of oil
Or look at it, I think this dish is very boring and spicy
But when I eat it, it's light, sour, sweet
Not spicy or too fat
Because the red color is red
It comes from the color of the tomato and the color of the rice flower, not the color of the chili
Now I will try it
Thai people when eating this dish will eat with a spoon and fork like this
I really like the smell of this fig tree
While in Vietnam, I see very few dishes use this dish to put in
Mainly only people in the countryside or in the forest
They just pick this leaf to eat
Eat this dish is a whole childhood
It's been a long time, I haven't eaten this fig leaf for 10 years
This dish must always have blood
Here they cook this dish with pork blood
This is almost like a cheap dish in Thailand
Usually you will see in the markets
Or along the streets of Thailand
People will sell this dish with a big vegetable basket like this
A lot of vegetables and whoever wants to eat a lot of vegetables will take it and put it in
But here they have already taken the vegetables for a small plate like this
Here they have been selling this dish for decades
She has a place to make ice water
Over there, I will go over there to buy ice water for her to eat
I asked him to make me a cup of shaved ice
Very traditional
Can you see the shaved ice like in the old days?
Handmade shaved ice
There are pine cones below
There are pandan trees
There are sticky balls
And the ice cubes that he has soaked with sugar
Then he will make a little milk
And syrup
This is my shaved ice
Very simple, but he gave me a small bowl
Oh, it's too fat, the small bowl is scattered
This is the pine cone
It seems that there is a little banana oil in it, very fragrant
Ah, there is also
Tofu cake
This is called cake
There is no tofu
There is also cake
And this is
Pomegranate
Entering this restaurant is exactly the same as
Back in the day
I sat from the time when there were a lot of guests, now there are no more guests, but I still sit here
If you come here to eat, remember to order a bowl of shaved ice like this to eat
Now I will
Eat this bowl
Then I will visit this area
The red car is the Théo river
Is a type of mini bus, mini bus of Thailand
If you go there, you can pay the price and the amount if you go less people
Normally, they will take about 30 baht per person
This side is Thapa Gate
One of the east gate of Lan Na country
You can see that people are starting to build
To let the weekend night market here
Every weekend, there will be a night market there
The place I am standing here is next to Wat Che Luang pagoda
One of the pagodas that is named as the most sacred temple in Chiang Mai
I am standing at the entrance gate for international tourists
I will go in here, and the main gate is only for local people
Do you see the gate?
This is the gate
Covered with patterns, patterns
Gold
Golden armor and very beautiful glass
I will go in here to buy a ticket
The ticket price is 40-50 baht per person
I don't know if the price has been raised or not, it's been a long time since I came back here
The ticket price is still the same, 40 baht per person
If children are less than 1.35 meters, they will get half price, which is 20 baht
Now open the door is 8 am to 5 pm
This is the ticket to visit the pagoda, 40 baht
And there will be a person to check the ticket at the top
The front hall is the parts that have been built after this
The ancient pagoda is really in the back, can you see it?
There is a tower that has been partially collapsed
Wat Che Luang pagoda is said to be built in 1391
At that time, the king built this pagoda
To build the pagoda
At that time, he built this pagoda to keep the tomb of his father
After that, the pagoda was gradually expanded until 1475
Then built the tall building
Is the tower tower in the center
Up to 84 meters at that time
At that time, 84 meters was said to be the tallest building in Chiang Mai
And after the earthquake in 1545
It was destroyed a lot and only the tower tower was about 60 meters high
Although after the earthquake, it was only about 60 meters high
But it still keeps the status of the tallest pagoda in Chiang Mai until the present world
Until the 21st century, when skyscrapers began to be built, it was demolished
This is one of the most sacred places of Chiang Mai people and Thai people
Can you see behind me?
There is a very big pagoda
And here is a place to pray
Chiang Mai people believe that this pagoda and this place
Is one of the sacred places and ancient sites of the whole city of Chiang Mai
So if anyone makes a mistake or does something that does not respect this place
It will affect the survival of the whole city of Chiang Mai
So they see this place as the most sacred place and where they always put effort to protect
The evidence is that you should see this place
This pagoda also has a barrier, which prohibits women, only men can enter
They believe that women in the Qing Dynasty
Will make this place no longer sacred
Then it will cause disaster to the whole city of Chiang Mai
This is just an old view, but they still keep it
And until today, as you can see, there is such a barrier
You can see
The pagoda has been built from the end of the 14th century to now more than 600 years
But the patterns and patterns of it are still very delicate and beautiful
Of course, there is a part that has been restored
The pagoda was built when the Lan Na empire, the most prosperous empire in China
Speaking of Lan Na
Lan means 1 million, Na means rice
It is the land of rice
In the period of 14-15
It was the period of Lan Na
At that time, Lan Na sent troops with Lan Shang
Lan Shang means 1 million elephants
In general, there was a war with the Vietnamese
At that time, in the year 1480
There was a war with the late King Le Thanh Tong
At that time, the two sides were fighting each other to calm down the land of Bồn Mang
Bồn Mang is the northern part of Laos, which is now close to Nghệ An
At that time, Lan Na sent troops to help
And the two sides fought very fiercely
Until the year 1480, the war ended
In the 16th century
The Lan Na empire began to weaken
And gradually, other countries in the Indian, in the Siam province
And in the 20th century, it merged with Siam to create Thailand
In the back, you can still see the two five-headed snake gods
Up there is also the statue of a Buddha
Before, after the earthquake in 1545
The Buddha statue was still kept here
Until 6 years later
The king brought the Buddha statue to Luang Pha Bang of Laos to keep
The Naga snake is considered a very sacred animal
In Buddhism, Thai people and Indians
They believe that snakes are animals that guard the water and can protect sacred places
Usually, in India, when people die, they will burn the body and release it into the Han River
But those who are bitten to death, especially the tiger snake
They won't have to burn the body anymore
Because they believe that the snake is sacred
Connecting between humanity and the Han River
When the tiger snake bites
It is considered that that person has escaped to the Han River
No need to burn the body anymore
That is one of the beliefs of Thai people, as well as Indians
As well as the countries with Buddhism
The two Naga snake gods over there were restored later
And here you can see
The two Naga snake gods guarding the gate here were destroyed after the earthquake
As well as over hundreds of years without restoration
I just ordered a glass of kumquat juice
Kumquat juice is one of my favorite drinks in Thailand
People here often call it orange juice
But in Vietnam, this fruit is called kumquat
They will mix it with sugar, add a little salt and drink it very cool
Usually they will sell in plastic bottles
Small bottles are about 20, 25, 30 baht per bottle
And this is the glass that people sell on the spot and then buy
The feeling is very different
Sweet, sour, salty
And the smell of kumquat in here
I'm on my way to another temple near here
This temple has a long history, from the end of the 14th century
And it was rebuilt around the end of the 19th century
It was completely built with black teak wood
This temple is the most famous for using wood to build
And the architecture is very elegant
If you pass by, you can visit
Now I will go to the parking lot and go to another sightseeing place
Ah, no
It's better to go to another place to eat
Please wait for me for a while
Goodbye everyone. I'm Khoai
