What To Expect

Embark on a half-day tour designed to showcase the highlights of Chiang Rai. Begin your journey at the vibrant main market area, where local culture comes alive. From there, visit Wat Phra Kaew, the historic temple where the renowned Emerald Buddha was discovered in A.D. 1434 before finding its home in Bangkok.

Next, head to Wat Doi Thong, known for its Navel Pillars and stunning panoramic views of the Mae Kok River. Don't miss the King Meng Rai Monument, which honors the city's founder.

The tour continues to the iconic Wat Rong Khun, or the "White Temple." This breathtaking masterpiece captivates with its intricate lime sculptures glimmering in the sunlight, embellished with small mirror fragments that create a dazzling effect. Inside, marvel at the exquisite murals and beautifully crafted Buddha images, as well as the unique painted enamel ceramic floor, showcasing contemporary Thai art at its finest.
