Chiang Rai is the northernmost province of Thailand filled with the atmosphere of a complex mountain range and valuable Lanna Culture. Situated on the Kok River basin, the province is located within the renowned Golden Triangle area where Myanmar, Laos and Thailand converge. Thus, Chiang Rai is also known as the gateway to Myanmar, Laos and Southern China. This small, amiable city is worth getting to know, with its relaxed atmosphere, fine local food and good-value accommodation, offers many interesting cultural attractions such as Wat Rong Khun, designed and built by Ajarn Chalermchai Kositpipat, stands out with exquisite white architecture, as well as Mingmuang Temple which is the oldest temple in Chiang Rai; Wat Rong Suea Ten Huay Pla Kang Temple and Baan Dam museum, which is a place for collecting art works by Ajarn Thawan Thanchanee. For those who like nature, you can go up to see the sunrise over the Mekong and the sea of mist in the morning at Doi Pha Tang. Feel the cold and see the 360 degree sea view mist at Phu Chi Dao. See winter Flowers at Mae Fah Luang Gardens around Doi Tung Palace. Tracing the “13 Wild Boar Caves” EVENT at Tham Luang-Khun Nam Nang Non-Forest Park. In addition, because Chiang Rai is a province that is at the junction between Thailand, Myanmar and Laos, tourists can view both sides of the Mekong at Golden Triangle And visit Mae Sai market – Tha Khi Lek Along the Thai-Burma border as well
Though Chiang Rai is situated right next to Chiang Mai, it’s such a pity not that many people visit the city. So why not visit both for travel memories of your lifetime?
