			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone" src="http://travel.mthai.com/post-gallery/38900-4ac08732791e3-1.jpg" alt="" width="400" /></p>
<p>In the days of ancient times, when gods ruled the earth and mythological creatures roamed the lands, ruled the seas, and reigned from the skies, the magnificent Phaya Naga existed. According to northern legend, this formidable serpentine creature, a symbol of strength, opulence, and eternal life, helped the righteous Kings in building the city. As an act of allegiance and obedience, the Naga endowed the kings with vast wealth and power, and thus safeguarding the prosperity of the land. A guardian of the Buddha and protector of earthly waters, the Naga exhibited magical powers that allowed it to take human semblance.</p>
<p>Drawing inspiration from this mystical creature, De Naga Chiang Mai displays an array of Naga throughout the hotel in the form of statues, ornaments and various decorative details. Befitting to the northern region of Thailand, the hotel exemplifies the strikingly exotic Lanna style. Using a distinctly typical Lanna architectural design, which is evident from the steep gabled roof descending from an elongated pinnacle into curved, flame-shaped eaves, the architecture originates from the northern parts of Thailand. The hotel is constructed using teakwood and elevated from the ground in the traditional manner.</p>

Walking through the entrance, the noise of the city seemingly dissipates and evokes a sense of calmness and relaxation.</p>
<p><span id="more-180"></span></p>
<p>De Naga rooms feature warm teakwood interiors and are decorated in Thai silk, upholding the eye-catching Lanna style and enhancing the look and feel of the traditional design. In each room, a Naga art feature adorns the wall at the head of the bed, while an elaborate headpiece depicting a large golden Naga is displayed in the Naga Suite.

<p>The Beginning of ?<strong>Ruen Come In Restaurant</strong> and <strong>Huen Come Residence</strong>? can be dated back to the year 1988, when this golden teakwood mansion was first built. The owner chose golden teakwood in order to reminisce her childhood, running and playing with her cousin in teak wood house in Phrae province.</p>
<p>The construction of the mansion was never been easy. It was difficult to find both the material and man craft. Starting from the teak wood, some were brought from Burma (Through Baan Nhong Ook check point ? it was closed already), some were from old houses in northern Thailand. In total, it took almost 7 years to finish this project.</p>
<p>Once the construction was finished, the owner?s family have moved in and started to decorate. Almost everything were self picked, some trees were self planted (especially the coconut tree, because the owner?s sons like to drink coconut). The atmosphere that surrounds the house is cosy and comfortable, it is a perfect place for oneself to relax.</p>
<p>This mansion served as a private house for only a short period. In 1997, during the ?IMF Era? when Thailand?s rising economy was collapsed, the owner decided to change it into a restaurant, so that other visitors can enjoy the nice atmosphere as well as the architecture. Guests have since then enjoy both the serene setting and taste of the food from family?s recipes (The grandparents used to own a famous restaurant ?Bua Sawan Bar? in Nhong Bua, Doi Saket district, some recipes are from Phrae province)<br />

<p><strong>Teak Wood</strong></p>
<p>Huen-Come-In Thai Restaurant Chiang Mai is located in a beautiful Contemporary Thai House. The whole house is made of Golden Teak Wood, which is highly regarded as an invaluable wood for its beauty and durability properties. Teak wood was popular in the past as material for House construction. Though we can see and buy teak wood furniture, but nowadays it is rare to see a big house building up with Teak wood as main material due to its high price and scarcity of the wood itself.<br />
Teak wood in Thailand has different names, due to different color of the timbers. The so called &#8220;Golden Teak Wood&#8221; has golden-brown color. Much of the world&#8217;s teak is founded in India, Myanmar, Northern Thailand, Laos and Indonesia. It grows better in areas with adequate rainfall (1,000 ? 2,000 mm per year) and with 3 ? 4 months dry season (with 75 ? 95% light exposure).<br />
The timber is used in the manufacture of outdoor furniture, boat decks, and other articles where weather resistance is desired. It is also used for indoor flooring and as a veneer for indoor furnishings.<br />
Teak is easily worked and has natural oils that make it suitable for use in exposed locations, where it is durable even when not treated with oil or varnish. Teak cut from old trees grown slowly in natural forests is more durable and harder; teak from young trees grown in plantations is more prone to splitting and water damage.<br />
Teak is used extensively to make doors and window panes, furniture and columns and beams in old type houses. It is very resistant to the attack of termites. The mature teak fetches a very good price. House make from Teak wood is popular, it is however very expensive to build the whole house out of Teak wood, due to high cost. Nowadays it is rare to see such buildings.<br />
The age of the tree can be assessed from the annular rings formed every year inside the trunk. Teak is grown extensively by forest departments of different countries in forest areas. In Thailand, Forest department encourage farmers to grow it as economic plantation.</p>
