From Chiang Rai: Hill Tribes & Golden Triangle Full-Day Tour
Description
Our exploration takes us to breathtaking mountain landscapes: Mae Salong is a picturesque village founded by Kuomintang soldiers who fled China after Mao Tse Tung’s victory in 1949. The unique blend of hill tribes, southern Chinese–style houses, and pack horses evokes the charm of a small Yunnanese town. Visitors can stroll through the local market, famous for its fruit wines, herbs, and many other goods.
Enjoy lunch at a local restaurant before continuing to the striking Wat Rong Suea Ten (Blue Temple), renowned for its vivid blue color and intricate artwork that set it apart from any other temple in Thailand.
The tour concludes in Mae Sai, Thailand’s northernmost town, located on the border with Myanmar. Here, travelers can browse bustling shops and street stalls offering a wide range of Chinese and Burmese handicrafts and antiques, the perfect ending to a culturally rich day in the far north. Return to hotel.
