From temples to rivers – 3 days Chiang Rai exploration
HIGHLIGHTS

Experience the charm of Northern Thailand on a 3-day journey through Chiang Rai, where every corner reveals a story of culture, spirituality, and timeless beauty. Begin with a city exploration of Chiang Rai’s most emblematic landmarks — the sacred Wat Phra Kaew and Wat Phra Singh, followed by the unique and mysterious Baan Dam Museum, home to the creations of Thailand’s most provocative artist. Later, unwind on a serene cruise along the Mae Kok River, gliding through peaceful villages and tropical landscapes.

On the second day, set out for the iconic Golden Triangle, a land where Thailand, Laos, and Myanmar converge. Discover the remnants of ancient glory in Chiang Saen, the former Lanna capital on the Mekong’s banks, and visit the House of Opium Museum to uncover the secrets of this historic trade route. Then, embark on a boat trip along the Mekong River, where the borders of three nations unfold before your eyes.

Your final morning invites you to savor Chiang Rai’s gentle rhythm — stroll through local markets, meet friendly artisans, or simply relax before your return. This unforgettable travel to Thailand program by Avex Vietnam Travel offers more than sightseeing — it is a journey into the soul of the North, where art, legend, and the flow of rivers create memories that last a lifetime.
