Shambhala in Your Heart Festival is a great music festival with activities such as music, dance, arts, crafts, camping, campfires, yoga, meditation and so much more. The event takes place in the picturesque and quiet area of Chiang Dao (one hour’s drive from Chiang Mai). This family style festival is just wonderful! Organized by a small Japanese hippie community that lives in the area, the festival lasts for a week and every day is different, with day time activities such as art and yoga courses and night time live performances.
You can bring your tent and spend a few nights there. It is a place to go with family and friends plus you will meet a lot of new people and make more friends.
