			<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>
<p>Throughout the hotel, exquisitely designed Naga are a featured theme, with majestic white serpents with heads decorated in gold to be seen surrounding the water feature and lining the stairways. The Naga is also represented all throughout the interior of the hotel, adorning the walls, doors and tabletops with metallic statues, hand-carved art, paintings, lighting features, and etched into many numerous ornaments and design details.</p>
<p>Where locality is a priority, De Naga Chiang Mai provides this with added convenience. Situated across from Tha Pae Gate in the Old City, the hotel is placed in a prime location, right in the heart of the city. The sights and attractions of Chiang Mai are all in close proximity, with many various cultural attractions, the Sunday walking street, and local shops within 10 minutes walking distance, as well as featured view of  Doi Suthep Mountain.</p>
<p>De Naga Chiang Mai represents stylish, contemporary living, while providing unmistakable service excellence.

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.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone" src="http://www.xoprivate.com/img/accommodation/hotels-and-resorts/mandarin-oriental-dhara-dhevi/mandarin-oriental-dhara-dhevi-l.jpg" alt="" width="400" /></p>
<p><strong>Mandarin Oriental Dhara Dhevi</strong> is spread over 60 acres of peaceful, natural landscapes, incorporating serene paddy fields and exotic plantations. We offer a self contained world of beauty, wellness and a cultural museum dedicated to the Lanna kingdom.</p>
<p>Whilst the Dheva Spa is our spiritual soul, <strong>Mandarin Oriental Dhara Dhevi</strong> is also the perfect retreat to experience the rich heritage of Northern Thailand. Ban Sam Lang, our cultural centre is dedicated to maintaining the many fading traditions offering a glimpse of life in the past; we offer our Oriental Culinary Academy and our Lanna Kids Club that will expand the imagination of all young explorers. And when you stay with us, whether you choose our suites, villas or Residences you will find architectural tributes to the ancient kingdom of Lanna.</p>
<p>Unlike any other resort in the area, all of our accommodations consist of either individual traditional Thai villas with separate living, dining, sleeping areas, outdoor shower, indoor bath, large outdoor living spaces and many with private swimming pool or plunge pools overlooking rice paddy fields. All villas are unique in that the design and detail of each its building was painstakingly researched from ancient Lanna Buildings and hand-crafted by local artisans or true suites in the colonial style, each with bedroom and separate but adjoining living rooms and large private verandahs.</p>
<p><span id="more-110"></span></p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="http://www.kiwicollection.com/upload/property2/mandarin-oriental-dhara-dhevi-chiang-mai_2731_02.jpg" alt="" width="400" /></p>
<p>Here is all the colour and craft of Thailand; vibrant saffron robed monks, vast stretches of green paddy fields and the artistry of the Northern Hill tribes.</p>
<p><strong> Chiang Mai</strong> spoils travelers with its natural beauty and its range of history and culture. The mountain scenery can simply be an inspirational backdrop or offer an adventure, with guided treks to discover indigenous tribes and the rich flora and fauna. The 14th century wats can simply be admired for their intricate Lanna architecture or they may inspire a more meditative experience with exploration of Buddhism, practiced by 90% of Thais. And then the craft that can be viewed in factories, markets and the famous night bazaar is not only a cultural display but can become a rather addictive shopping experience. These many diversions are detailed by our concierge under Things to do and see.</p>
<p>Meanwhile at <strong>Mandarin Oriental Dhara Dhevi</strong> we are proud to offer an entirely cultural experience that mirrors the essence of Chiang Mai. Created as a tribute to Lanna architecture, embracing the natural surroundings and home to a rare collection of Northern Thai antiquities our guests can enjoy an enriching experience in luxury fit for kings.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="http://www.travel-is.com/resort/images/dhara_dhevi/004.jpg" alt="" width="400" /></p>
<p><strong>Room &amp; Suites</strong></p>
<p><strong>Villas<br />
</strong></p>
<p>Our Villas bring to life the architecture and design of Lanna, evoking all the regions that rich kingdom covered from Mandalay to Vientiane.</p>
<p>All are made with rich bronze teak wood that blends with the natural surroundings. With over 60 acres of land we had no shortage of space in creating our villas and all are renowned for their size. Indeed most have dining areas, outdoor plunge pools and your own piano. These are true retreats set amidst paddy fields and ornate gardens, the rain trees and betel palms create a green seclusion. Inside we provide high levels of modern technology balancing tradition with all the luxuries of modern travel.</p>
<p>The Villas are created over two floors, providing a large living area on the ground floor with the entire top floor your bedroom and bathroom. Some are built on stilts, a traditional approach, in harmony with the tropical climate. Choose from our Villa , Deluxe Villa with private sala or Jacuzzi, one of our Grand Deluxe Villas with either plunge pool or private pool or one of our 2 bedroom villas.</p>
<p><strong>Suites</strong></p>
<p>Neighbouring influences introduced colonial architecture to Northern Thailand and we bring that classic elegance to life in our colonial suites.</p>
<p>Our suites run the length of a white colonnade lined with green palms and dark shutters. Located around the gardens near the swimming pool and lobby they are a more sociable option to the private villas and it is easy to arrange connecting rooms.</p>
<p>The interiors evoke a bygone era of elegant grandeur. Each suite has a separate living room and a large private verandah. The ceilings soar to five metres enhancing the feeling of airy spaciousness, so inviting in the tropics.</p>
<p>Choose from our Colonial , the more spacious Deluxe Colonial, Grand Deluxe Colonial or our magnificent 2 bedroom Mandarin Suite. For those many guests intent on frequent spa therapies we recommend our spa suites.</p>
<p><strong>Signature Residences</strong></p>
<p>All the components of an ancient city exist within our fortified walls, including examples of the finest residences and each offers one of today&#8217;s most valued luxuries, privacy.</p>
<p>We offer three magnificent residences for parties of up to 12 guests. These are the ideal choice for discerning travellers, celebrities and visiting royalty who wish to preserve their privacy.</p>
<p><strong>Spa</strong></p>
<p>The Dheva Spa is named after the Star Goddess, guardian of longevity and spiritual enlightenment.<strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p>Our staff are trained at our on site Academy, to the highest levels of professionalism. We offer an extensive range of holistic therapy: healing <strong>treatments</strong> , prescribed residential Wellness Programmes and our world renowned <strong>Ayurvedic centre</strong>.
