Description

Starting the journey to the northern Thailand. Explore Chiang Rai the cultural city visit 2 temples (White temple/Blue temple) and Black House Museum.
Start your journey with a pickup from your hotel in Chiang Mai, and head to Chiang Rai in northern Thailand. Visit Chiang Rai’s most impressive temples: the White Temple (Wat Rong Khun), Blue Temple (Wat Rong Suea Ten), and the Black House Museum (Baan Dam).

Take a halfway break to relax at Mae Kachan Hot Spring, a natural hot spring where you can observe steam rising from the mineral-rich waters.

First, visit Wat Rong Khun, better known as the White Temple, one of the most recognizable temples in Thailand. Wat Rong Khun stands out due to its dazzling white color and the use of glass pieces embedded in the plaster, which sparkle in the sun. The white color signifies the purity of the Buddha, while the glass represents the Buddha's wisdom and the Dhamma (Buddhist teachings). Enjoy a Thai buffet for lunch at a local restaurant.

Next, visit Wat Rong Suea Ten, also known as the Blue Temple, which is famous for its striking sapphire blue color. Wat Rong Suea Ten translates to "House of the Dancing Tiger," named after the tigers that once roamed the area. The main building, the viharn (assembly hall), is guarded by huge Naga snakes at the entrance. The richly decorated gable follows traditional Lanna style, with intricate floral motifs.

Lastly, visit the Black House Museum, a complex of 40 buildings, mostly made of dark teak wood, set in beautiful gardens. Known in Thai as Baan Dam, or Black House, the buildings house a collection of paintings, sculptures, silver and gold items, as well as animal bones and skins. The architecture of the Black House is a mix of Lanna, Laotian, and Southeast Asian styles, blending both traditional and modern elements.

Enjoy your experience, and transfer back to your hotel (drop-off around 7 - 7:30 p.m.).
