The Royal Flora show in Chiang Mai is an amazing array of flower that covers acres with beautiful displays. Luckily there is a hop-on hop-off tram for touring the site. Take the tram and decide what is of most interest to you as there is too much to see in one day. Many countries are included in the Friendship of Many Cultures including Japan, Canada, India, Bhutan, and many others. The Thai Royal Pavilion is outstanding and the largest of the cultural displays.

Gardens and parks offer great relaxation both for mind and eyes, and the lovely city of Porto in northern Portugal has them in spades. Four of the top choices:
