- Thailand|1 Days Tour
CHIANG RAI. DOI TUNG, MAE FAH LUANG GARDEN, MAE SALONG. (L.)
Day 1
At about 07:30, in the morning meeting with the guide, departure for n intense beautiful day of visits.
The day starts with a visit of Doi Tung, where the Mae Fah Luang Gardens and the Queen Mother's Teak house are located.
The Mae Fah Luang Garden is dotted with roses, dahlias and tulips, arranged in European-style flower beds. Scattered around the garden are fountains, rock art, wooden structures and a small evergreen labyrinth. Some areas of the park are also dedicated to traditional tropical plants and flowers, including a fern house, an orchid house and a night garden. There is also a special cactus house.
It continues with the visit of Doi Mae Salong, which is not a typical Thai city, but feels more like it belongs to the south of China. This is because it was founded as a Yunnanese factory in the 1960s, from the remains of the Kuomintang army (KMT) who fled Yunnan after the defeat of Mao Tse Tung's forces in the Chinese civil war.
Most of the elements of the Republican army took refuge in the then Formosa, now Taiwan, while some units fled through Burma and Laos, from where they continued to raid the Chinese border, before settling in the anti-communist Kingdom of Thailand.
Return to the hotel at approximately 17:00. Evening free for own activities.
