Thailand beyond the beaches and full-moon parties

Been plenty of places, first time to Thailand, and I want more than beaches and backpacker bars. What’s genuinely worth building days around - the temples and food up north, the quieter islands - and what’s overhyped? After the version of Thailand that isn’t the party circuit.

That’s quite a few things to decide haha :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: . For one place, Chiang Mai is worth looking into for the temples, food and local markets, it feels quite different from the beach-and-party side of Thailand.
