Day 1
CHIANG RAI - Arrival, Golden Triangle, Opium Museum - Boat on the Kok River, Ethnic Minorities. (L.)
Arrival at the airport in Chiang Rai by 10:00 am, reception with local guide.
Today we begin the exploration of this province, the northernmost of Thailand, starting with the famous Golden Triangle, the point where the borders of Myanmar (ancient Burma), Thailand and Laos meet. It is located 9 kilometers north of Chiang Saen, along the road along the Mekong River. Sop Ruak is the place where the Mekong River (border with Laos) meets the Ruak River (border with Burma). In the past, the Golden Triangle was the world's leading source of drug trafficking due to its privileged position linked to the opioid-producing countries. Today it is a popular tourist attraction.
The visit includes Wat Phra That Pu Khao which offers a wonderful view of the Golden Triangle, the Mekong River and the forested mountains. Two large multi-headed Naga snakes at the bottom of the staircase protect the temple. It continues with the Opium Museum. The museum exhibits and educates visitors on the production of opium and its use in the life of the tribal people of the hills, from the visit we can learn a lot about the history of opium since it developed in this notorious location. Lunch is served in a local restaurant.
In the afternoon, return to the city and transfer to the pier for boarding a motorboat that will take us to Ruam Mitr along the Kok River, with a visit to the ethnic minorities Karen and Lahu. The Karen village of Ruammit which is located on the banks of the Nam Mae Kok (Mae Kok river) is famous for its elephants, with a long tradition of training and deforestation and remains distinctly of the Karen ethnic group, preserving its culture and traditions. To date and has become one of the major tourist attractions both on Nam Mae Kok and in the province of Chiang Rai. Ruammit can be reached in 1 hour by boat from the provincial capital of Chiang Rai province and the boats leave at regular intervals from the Chiang Rai pier. In the early evening, arrival at the selected hotel and accommodation in the reserved rooms. Overnight at the hotel in Chiang Rai.
Day 2
CHIANG RAI - CHIANG MAI, Blue Temple, White Temple, Wat Pratat Doi Suthep. (B.L.)
At 07:00, meeting with the guide, visit the famous Blue Temple, or Wat Rong Seua Ten located a few kilometers from Chiang Rai. It is a recent temple which is still under construction, although its main hall is now completed. It is above all its magnificent blue interior with a large white Buddha that marks the spirits.
The Blue Temple of Chiang Rai is still little known among tourists for now, because it was completed very recently.
Then we will start the path that takes us to Chiang Mai, during which a visit to the White Temple or Wat Rong Khun will not be missed. One of the many religious places in Chiang Rai. With exceptional quality in art and extremely elaborate architecture, the hall dedicated to the assemblies of Wat Rong Khun is unlike any other temple in terms of having both the apexes of the carved pediment and the tooth-shaped crests. The hall itself is mostly built in pure white, illustrative of the Buddha's purity. The sparkling clear mirror glass serves as the wisdom of the Awakened who shines on earth and the universe
Lunch is served in a local restaurant along the way.
Once in Chiang Mai, we complete the day dedicated to the temples with the most famous of Chiang Mai, Wat Pratat Doi Suthep, located on a mountain from the top of which you can enjoy a panoramic view of the hilly area of Chiang Mai.
Built in the early 19th century Buddhist (now we are 26th), the beauty of Wat Phra That Doi Suthep is marked by seven-headed snake statues lining the stairs to the temple where there is a golden Chiang-style pagoda Saen and all its exquisite Lanna architecture. The view of Chiang Mai from here is simply phenomenal.
In the evening, transfer to the hotel and accommodation in the reserved rooms. Overnight at the hotel in Chiang Mai
