PLEASE 

CUDDLE THE DOGS 

Dog Rescue by Elephant Nature Park 

在大象自然保护公园做拯救流浪狗的义工 

Do you have a little time to spare? Do you love animals? Then you should 

consider helping Dog Rescue, at Elephant Nature Park. 

Dog Rescue Project began in 2011, as a result of catastrophic floods in 

Bangkok. Volunteers from Elephant Nature Park rescued dogs trapped 

on rooftops and bridges; they provided them with food and medicines, and for 

those whose owners could not be found, they brought them back to Chiang Mai. 

Soon, the famous elephant sanctuary, was re-organized to welcome 

these new family members and large “dog runs” were built with all kind of 

things for the dogs to climb on, swim in and play amongt. A small animal 

hospital has been constructed and a full time vet and clinic manager employed 

to care for the dogs. 

With 200-acre stretch of land, the park is big enough to welcome 

66 elephants, 200 cats, 450 dogs plus many horses and buffaloes. Lek- 

Sangduen Chailert, the founder of the park, is an internationally recognized 

animal rights defender. 

Volunteering with Elephant Nature Park Dog Rescue Project provides 

an opportunity to truly make a difference in the lives of so many animals. 

The minimum time commitment with the dogs is one week, but some of the 

volunteers have stayed for months. It is not an easy job but the love that dogs 

give you back is unforgettable and so very rewarding. 

您有一些空余时间吗 ? 您热爱动物吗 ? 如果是的 

那请您考虑一下来大象自然保护公园 , 帮我们一起 

完成救援流浪狗的项目。这个项目始于 2011 年 , 

当时正值曼谷遭遇灾难性的洪水灾害。大象自然保 

护公园的的志愿者们救了许多被困在屋顶和桥梁的 

小狗。之后他们又将数以百计的小狗带回到了大象 

象自然保护公园 , 因此我们对空间进行了重新安排 

以便欢迎这些新的家庭成员加入。 

目前 , 这个流浪狗救援项目提供给了 450 只小 

狗舒适的居住条件 , 而且还有很多供它们玩耍嬉戏 

的空间。您可以来此成为一个一周或更长时间的志 

愿者 , 帮助这些奇妙的动物们更好地生活在这里。 

若有意请联系大象自然保护公园以获取更多细节。

COVER 

STORY 

While ladies have a million ways to keep their baby-soft cheeks 

in check, us fellas tend to rely on soap and water and a wink in the 

mirror each morning. But perhaps we should take time out of our 

busy schedules this week to visit one of the charming razor-wielding 

barbers of Chiang Mai for a good old-fashioned male pampering 

experience. 

Now I speak strictly to a male audience here – those who 

probably don’t go in for so much body care on a day-to-day basis. 

But you might find that a 20-minute visit to a local barber in 

Chiang Mai might be just the meditation and rest you so badly seek 

in the middle of a hectic day. I’m sure there are many in our midst 

who will cringe at the thought of a cut-throat razor being held to 

their necks. Fear not! Lie back and close your eyes; bend your 

neck to the blade and whimper ye not! It’s all quite safe. 

女士们似乎有一百万种方法保养其柔软的脸颊 , 而我们男士却仅靠水和香皂就搞定 

一切 , 每天清晨视线也只在镜子上一扫而过。或许在这周 , 我们应该从忙碌的日程 

中腾出些时间光临下清迈的理发店 , 体验一次老派的男士面部剃须护理。 

只需花上 20 分钟 , 您就可以在清迈找到一间本土的理发店。在忙碌一天后 , 您只 

用静静地躺下冥想休息。没有什么可害怕的 ! 躺下来闭上眼睛 , 这就是一个彻底放 

松的过程。

Did you know that in days gone by, barbers were often called upon to 

perform surgery and extract teeth? Even Chaucer waxed lyrical about 

the profession: “A merry childe he was, so God we save; well could he 

let blood, clyppe and shave.” Such barbaric barberism or quackery has 

been somewhat outlawed since. It is a rare sight indeed to see the red 

and white pole of the barber shop nowadays. However, in many parts 

of the world, going to the barber’s for a shave is all in a hard day’s work. 

In India, the barber will scrub your face so hard you’ll think you are 

in a wrestling arena. In the Middle East you will leave the shop reeking 

of cheap cologne. In South America, they will begin by scrubbing your 

face with a bar of soap, and in Vietnam you might find that the barber’s 

shop sign is simply a front for an altogether more pleasurable service 

indeed. 

But nowhere in the world do they provide such a good shave as in 

Thailand. Thousands of barbers ply their trade all around the country. 

Simply go in and ask for a “gon nuad.” You will invariably be invited to 

lie back in a chair by a veteran of the blade, who will then gently tie 

a white bib around your neck and shoulders. Of course, there are many 

female barbers in Thailand too. In a large air-conditioned barber shop 

next to Wat Suandok on Suthep Road, most of the 15 barbers are 

women and fine scalpers they are too. 

Nonetheless, this is a traditionally male domain. After all, how many 

ladies know that the delicate plucking of hair from just below the nostrils 

will bring a tear to a man’s eyes? Or that a blood-weeping nick on the 

neck causes no pain, whereas the after-burn of a scraping rash lasts 

all day? In any case, relax and unwind as the chair reclines and you 

find yourself staring up at the ceiling. The barber affixes a fresh blade 

to his or her razor and whips up a soapy lather for your bristly visage. 

You now close your eyes and submit your throat to the masked 

0sman above. He, or she, will lather your face carefully with a horsehair 

brush and then, with the whistle of steel slicing delightfully down 

your cheeks, scrape all that nasty stubble into the dustbin of history. 

A good barber will shave downwards once and then up again. 

He will snare the hair that hides in the secret garden of your chin cleft; 

will deftly prune the unruly wires that sprout from your nose, your ears 

and your eyebrows; and will gently sandpaper the stubble on your 

chin and above your lips. And, when he’s finished, he’ll do it all again 

a second time. 

For the next round, some barbers prefer to pat your face down with 

talcum powder (the barber’s forensic duster for hunting bum-fluff). 

Otherwise, get ready for the next step of your journey, which is the 

delicate shearing of your ears, your forehead and the back of your 

neck. You might find this news disturbing, but it feels so good that you’ll 

probably fall into a gentle sleep. Of course, in five years you’ll look like 

a werewolf, but what the heck. 

Now your entire mug is flawlessly fluffless, but dry as a desert. 

So your aide-de-blade should have prepared a lovely, wet, steaming 

hot, lemon-scented towel to wrap around your head. This is the piece 

de resistance: any barber who does not include this service is not worth 

a guinea. Post-shave pampering is what it’s all about. If in doubt, insist 

on a post-shave face spa before you begin. Pay an extra 20 baht if 

necessary. Otherwise, the experience is about as refreshing as rubbing 

sand in your face. 

Anyway, assuming you have been bidden to lay back and enjoy the 

hot towel treatment, you should now be ready to move onto a smooth 

facial scrub. Your barber will lovingly wipe your peachy jowls down with 

an icy cold towel and then dab raw alcohol into any nicks in the artwork. 

And just in case you haven’t already melted into jelly yet, a good barber 

should always finish off with a firm massage of the head, the neck and 

the shoulders. 

Et voila! In only 20 minutes you are feeling soothed, content and 

refreshed. Your cheekbones are sculpted, your chin quite statuesque, 

and your perky little jowels are smoother than 100 babies’ bottoms. 

All that for around 50 or 80 baht. Not bad.

Where to go 

Baanjong Kesa Barber Shop (City map G3) 

Suan Dok Barber (City map B4) 

Skill Barber Shop (City map C2) 

The Culter Barber Shop (City map E5) 

For many years a series of traditional shaving parlours have 

occupied the street just west of Wat Suandok on Suthep Road; 

these are great places to get the old-fashioned treatment. 

Another place is located on Ratchawong Road, next to Neramit 

Tailor Shop. It is call Baanjong Kesa Barber Shop and is one of the 

oldest barber shop in Chiang Mai (50 to 80 baht). 

Skill Barber Shop on Huay Kaew Road, is a great place to go to 

(80 to 150 Baht). This place is also one of the very famous places in 

Chiang Mai where to get special head shaving styles. 

For fashionable styles, you can’t beat The Cutler at 75 Samlan 

Road inside the south side of the moat. Prices are somewhat higher 

than the previous venues (150 to 200 baht) but well worth it if you 

are looking for a hip new look. Reservations are recommended.

DESTINATION 

LAOS 

LUANG 

PRABANG 

Timeless Beauty 

Lose yourself in the timelessness of Luang Prabang. Stroll 

along narrow lanes that wind between beautifully-restored 

Buddhist temples, traditional timber homes, and French colonial 

structures. Experience for yourself the legendary Lao hospitality 

and engage in the daily rhythms of a place shaped by a thousand 

years of ritual... 

Luang Prabang is a small, dream-like town located in Northern 

Laos. Built on a peninsula formed by the Mekong and the Nam 

Khan rivers, the city is also encircled by lush green mountains. 

From Chiang Mai, there is a daily direct flight by Lao Airlines. Well 

known for its plethora of Buddhist temples and monasteries, 

the city is a UNESCO World-Heritage site full of enchanting 

things to do. 

Luang Prabang is an outstanding example of the fusion of 

traditional architecture and Lao urban structures with those built 

by the European colonial authorities in the 19th and 20th centuries. 

Its unique, remarkably well-preserved townscape illustrates 

a key stage in the blending of these two distinct cultural traditions. 

The richness of Luang Prabang architecture reflects the mix 

of style and materials. The majority of the buildings are wooden 

structures while the temples are made of stone. 

From temples to kayaks, from spas to caves, there are 

a thousand activities to do in Luang Prabang. But the most 

famous activity may be just walking in the city streets and 

enjoying everyday life in Luang Prabang. 

MUST SEE IN LUANG PRABANG : 

- Xieng Thong Temple: probably the most beautiful temple in 

town. Although they are all very beautiful. Entry 5,000 kips. 

- Pak Ou Caves also known as the Buddha Cave. This trip 

requires a 45 minutes boat trip and you will love seeing everyday 

life along the Mekong river. 

- Phu Si Hill, one of the best spots from where seeing the view 

of the city. 

- Whisky Village: the boat will take you there and you will see 

whisky bottles with snakes in them. 

- Tad Sae Waterfall, located in a park about 13 kilometres from 

town. It is a must for nature lovers but be careful during the 

rainy season. 

美丽的琅勃拉邦 

琅勃拉邦是老挝北部一个浪漫梦幻的 

小镇 , 位于南康江与湄公河的汇合处 , 其 

状似 “L” 形半岛 , 被郁郁葱葱的绿色山 

脉包围着。从清迈出发 , 每周二有老挝航 

空公司的直飞航班。琅勃拉邦是老挝的佛 

都 , 因其众多佛教庙宇和寺院而闻名遐 

迩。这座城市被联合国教科文组织列入世

琅勃拉邦必看 

— 香通寺 , 琅勃拉邦最宏伟的寺庙 , 门票 

5000 kips. 

— 帕乌岩洞也被称为佛陀岩洞。想去到这 

里需坐 45 分钟的游船 , 但我们相信您会喜 

欢上观赏湄公河沿岸的人们稀松平常的日 

常生活。 

— 浦西山 , 是观赏这座城市景色的最佳地 

点之一。

公园中。这里是自然爱好者必去的地方 , 

但雨季的时候需格外小心。

Au menu du Korea House: raviolis grillés, bibimbap, soupe au tofu et au kimchi: c’est 

tout simple et délicieux. De plus, le gril propose un choix inédit de viandes telles que du 

boeuf mariné à la sauce soja, de la poitrine de porc, de l’entrecôte, de l’échine et du poulet 

à la sauce piquante. Ces viandes, une fois cuites, se livrent au plus grisant des rituels: 

découpées en petites bouchées, elles se poudrent de sel au sésame, font trempette 

dans une sauce rouge de soja fermenté au piment, s’enveloppent d’une feuille de laitue 

croquante et s’entourent d’une série d’accompagnements endiablés: l’inénarrable kimchi 

(chou fermenté et pimenté) mais aussi la version blanche (sans piment). 

Bien que le restaurant soit dans un des quartiers connus du coeur de Chiang Mai, ses 

prix restent très abordables. Comptez de 120 à 180 Baht pour chaque plat et les accompagnements 

de légumes sont gratuits.

LE NOUVEL AN CHINOIS 

Croyances et traditions 

Le repas de famille. 

Le repas de famille a généralement lieux chez les parents de 

l’époux ou chez l’ainé de la famille. Le banquet de printemps 

doit être copieux et on prépare de grosses quantités pour que 

l’année à venir soit opulente. Chaque met a une signification 

dont voici les plus connus: le poisson est la prospérité, les raviolis 

la richesse, le bambou la jeunesse et les sucreries portent 

bonheur. 

Les mandarines. 

Les oranges et les mandarines sont le fruit du bonheur pour la 

nouvelle année. Elles sont offertes en nombre pair et consommées 

en nombre pair aussi afin de porter chance. 

Les enveloppes rouges. 

Ces enveloppes sont l’équivalent de nos étrennes. Lors du 

Nouvel An Chinois, les ainés offrent traditionnellement aux plus 

jeunes de l’argent dans des enveloppes rouges. 

La danse du dragon. 

Cette danse est effectuée au rythme des percussions les deux 

premiers jours de l’an. Une dizaine de personnes se cachent 

dans un gigantesque dragon de tissu coloré de huit à dix 

mètres et le font voltiger. Le dragon est un animal magique qui 

représente la bravoure, la noblesse et la chance. 

Les vêtements neufs. 

Lors de cette fête il est très important de rester bien propre 

et certaines personnes vont aussi se faire couper les cheveux. 

Les chinois portent très souvent des vêtements neufs, achetés 

pour l’occasion. La couleur rouge est associée à la joie, le 

bonheur, la chance, la richesse et la bonne fortune. La couleur 

or est aussi portée mais le noir est à0s éviter. 

En ce mois de février, nous vous souhaitons un excellent nouvel 

an Chinois! 

Si notre calendrier est basé sur le soleil, le calendrier chinois lui se base essentiellement sur la lune. La nouvelle 

année débute toujours avec une nouvelle lune et tombe à chaque fois entre le 21 janvier et le 20 février. Chaque 

année est associée à l’un des douze signes du zodiac chinois qui se réfèrent à un animal. Cette année, le nouvel 

an chinois sera célébré le 8 février et nous entrerons dans l’année du singe. 

Le nouvel an chinois est l’occasion en Thailande de célébrations importantes, car une grande partie de 

la population à des origines chinoises. Cette période correspond a de longues vacances pour les familles 

chinoises qui rejoignent leur région natale. De très grandes manifestations ont lieux en Thailande, les plus 

spectaculaires ayant lieu à Nakhon Sawan, au nord de Bangkok ainsi qu’à Bangkok même, dont le quartier 

chinois sera enflammé lors de fêtes démesurées. A Chiang Mai, vous pourrez assister aux festivités chaque 

soirs, du 6 au 8, sur la place de Thapae Gate, ainsi qu’au marché de Warorot qui se transformera chaque soir 

en rue piétonne. 

Le nouvel an chinois, qui est une fête familiale est appelé en Chinois le festival du printemps. Cet évènement 

est le plus important du calendrier et il comprend de nombreuses coutumes et traditions. En voici quelques-unes:
