Long Neck Tribe - Myanmar Border - Golden Triangle
You will be picked up from your hotel lobby and begin your journey to the Long Neck Tribe Village, where women are known for wearing multiple brass rings around their long, slender necks. Typically, a woman wears twenty or more rings, a tradition that originates from Shan State in Myanmar. Next, head to Mae Sai, the northernmost point of Thailand, located at the border with Myanmar. Here, you can explore the local market and shop for Myanmar products. Continue to the Golden Triangle, where the borders of Thailand, Laos, and Myanmar meet. Enjoy the panoramic views of the Mekong River and visit the Golden Buddha statue. You will also have the opportunity to explore the Opium Museum, which offers insight into the history of opium and its connection to the Golden Triangle. Your tour will then take you to Chiang Saen, an ancient city founded around 1328. Explore its historical sites, including the ruins of temples, stupas, and the remnants of the city wall and moat. Afterward, you will be transferred to your next hotel in Chiang Mai.
