Descrizione
Discover the natural beauty of Pha Chor Canyon on a tour from Chiang Mai. Explore the Sankampaeng district, known for its traditional handicrafts, and visit local factories.
Begin your journey with a scenic drive from Chiang Mai to Mae Wang National Park, followed by a few kilometers off-road. Arrive at Pha Chor, a unique natural wonder formed millions of years ago when the Ping River ran through the area. Over time, the river changed course, creating a hill. Subsequent erosion created soil pillars and cliffs of interesting shapes.
Take a walk to the site, leading down a stretch of steps through narrow corridors of tall trees and sandy rocks. This natural trail of 900 meters offers a variety of ecological and geological features with signs written in English. From the starting point, enjoy a beautiful view over Chiang Mai’s valley, including Lamphun, Sanpatong, and Doi Inthanon.
Next, head to the Sankampaeng district, renowned as Thailand's hub for traditional handicrafts, including hand-painted Bo Sang umbrellas, silk weaving, teak wood carving, silverware, and lacquerware. These local industries offer factory tours, providing a firsthand look at artisan craftsmanship with opportunities to purchase unique, handmade souvenirs.
