TLDR : Answer Summary

Yes, it's true that Indian citizens can currently enter Thailand with a 30-day visa exemption; however, this policy is temporary and will revert to the previous 15-day visa on arrival after May 10th. Some users expressed discontent over the preferential treatment for other nations' tourists who receive longer visa periods. Additionally, there are discussions about travel recommendations for Chiang Mai, including visiting temples and markets.

On 18th April my flight from Bangkok will reach Chiangmai at 11.15 AM. I shall stay at The Imperial Chiangmai Resort &Sports Club. I need to know (a) how much time is taken to reach hotel from the airport,(b) After lunch I will have the afternoon and evening at my disposal. Which spots should I visit? I am 76.

I lived in Chiang Mai and the Old City is full of temples to visit. There's Sunday Walking Street, and a Saturday street market in the silver district on Wua Lai Road near Chiang Mai Gate. The Silver Temple on Wua Lai Road us worth seeing, as is the silver museum a short ways away Doi Suthep on the mountain has a nice view, air pollution permitting. This time of year is the burning season so air quality may be bad.

Yes, Indian citizens receive 30 day visa exempt stamps until May 10th. After that it reverts back to 15 day visa on arrival.
