Although widely practised throughout Thailand, Fon Lep (or ‘Finger Dancing’), Fon Thean (or ‘Candle Dancing’) and Ram Dab (or ‘Sword Dancing’) all stem from Chiang Mai’s mountains and hills. The province enjoys a number of cultural shows where these (and other aspects of regional culture) provide entertainment. Take in one or two of these shows to get a real feel for Chiang Mai’s history and culture through its local arts.
