Itinerary

Day 1Chiang Rai - Golden Triangle – Chiang Rai 140 Km

Arrival at Chiang Rai airport by 10:00 AM and departure for the “Golden Triangle“, a vast geographical region that includes parts of Myanmar, Laos, and northern Thailand. This region was known to be one of the world’s major sources of opium production, especially during the second half of the 20th century, and is located at the point where the Ruak River converges with the Mekong River, the longest river in Southeast Asia at 4,350 Km. Stop at the panoramic viewpoint of the rivers’ meeting point, known as Phrathat Doi Pu Khao, and after lunch at a local restaurant, visit the Opium Museum, which offers a series of testimonies and objects related to the cultivation, trade, and consumption of this substance. Return to Chiang Rai and visit Wat Chiang Yuen, commonly known as the Red Temple, a masterpiece of Thai Buddhist architecture, characterized by a unique and fascinating design. The main structure of the temple is entirely painted in deep red, creating a vibrant contrast with the blue sky and surrounding vegetation. The use of red is symbolic in Thai Buddhism, representing fire and sacrifice. The last stop is at Wat Rong Seua Ten, better known as the “Blue Temple” or “Dancing Tiger Temple“, whose walls, roof, and surrounding statues are all covered in this splendid shade of sapphire blue, symbolically associated with purity, wisdom, and the lack of materialism to which Buddhists aspire. Check-in at the hotel, dinner at leisure, and overnight stay.
Meals: Lunch

Day 2Chiang Rai - Chiang Mai 240 Km

After breakfast at the hotel, visit Wat Rong Khun, a unique contemporary Thai-style temple based on imaginative elements of our materialistic world. Unlike most Thai temples, the building is entirely white, with glass and mirrors incorporated on the exterior to make it shine and sparkle in the sunlight but especially to be seen in the moonlight when it appears particularly ghostly and otherworldly. Its murals, unlike traditional temples that depict scenes from Buddhist stories, contain modern representations of good and evil, contemporary figures like Batman, Spiderman, and Elvis, villains, and superheroes from movies, comics, and even spaceships. Continue to the Mae Khachan hot spring, famous for its hot water geysers, and stop in the San Kamphaeng district for lunch at a local restaurant within a beautiful tropical garden. Arrival in Chiang Mai, “The Rose of the North”, considered the northern capital of Thailand, surrounded by spectacular mountains, with a beautiful historic center enclosed by ancient walls and its unique architecture that can be admired while strolling through the streets. Departure for the slopes of Doi Suthep, the mountain that dominates Chiang Mai with its 1,056 meters of height, and visit Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep, the most sacred Theravada temple in the city. Built at the beginning of the 19th Buddhist century, the temple’s beauty is characterized by statues of seven-headed serpents flanking the stairs where there is a golden pagoda in Chiang Saen style and all its exquisite Lanna architecture. Last visit to Wat Pha Lat, the “jungle temple,” a hidden gem of Chiang Mai with a temple complex. This picturesque temple immersed in the jungle, famous for meditation, is a place composed of several buildings scattered in the forest along a quiet stream and built in perfect harmony with nature so that it is difficult to tell where the buildings end and the forest begins. Arrival at the hotel, dinner at leisure, and overnight stay.
Meals: Breakfast – Lunch

Day 3Chiang Mai - Airport

After breakfast at the hotel, transfer to Chiang Mai Airport in time for the scheduled flight departure.
