Done exploring the ancient, crumbling temples of Chiang Mai? Why not take a trip to her sister city of Chiang Rai? If you’re expecting more of the same, you’re in for a surprise! The arty temples of Chiang Rai are quite unlike others in Thailand and, dare we say it, the world. With just a day to spare, we’ll see the highlights and return to Chiang Mai by evening. Dip our feet in the steaming mineral water at Mae Khachan Hot Spring. See the White Temple, a modern architectural masterpiece designed and built by local artist Chaloemchai Khositphiphat. He was rumored to have spent over THB 40 million of his own money to create this unconventional art exhibit to gain immortal life! Visit the Blue Temple or Wat Rong Seua Ten, literally translates to ‘temple of the dancing tiger’ built on a site where tigers were said to have jumped over the river. If the White Temple was meant to be a stairway to heaven, the Black House has been called a “dark, mysterious, and almost sadistic” representation of hell, complete with preserved animals and a collection of bones, a cluster of nearly 40 small shadowy structures exhibiting art dating back to the Ayutthaya period. This is truly something we’ll never see anywhere else! Built by Thailand national artist Thawan Duchanee (who was the mentor of Chaloemchai, the White Temple artist). Looking to make your road trip to Chiang Rai even more comfortable? You can choose to upgrade your transportation to a premium and more spacious Alphard, free snacks, cool towels, and soft drinks. You can opt for a private tour option to visit the Golden Triangle, a triangular piece of land bordering Thailand, Laos, and Myanmar. The nickname was coined by the CIA in reference to this region, whose trading posts’ top product was opium. Dive deep into the wild history of this area and learn how it became one of the most notorious narcotrafficking spots in the world. This itinerary option also includes a cruise down the Mekong River.
