[2025 Mae Chan Attraction] Travel Guide for Chiang Saen - the old city (Updated Apr)

🌟 🥰 Review of One budget hotel, a newly opened hotel in Chiang Saen 🥰 One budget has opened a new branch of the hotel in Chiang Saen. As a traveler, we couldn't help but go and try it. In conclusion, I give it a full 100++. The view from the room is the best. You can lie down and watch the lights on the King Roman side. It's so awesome 👍🏻👍🏻 🌟 Most importantly, the price is in the hundreds. If compared to the view from the room, it's in the millions. The staff here are impressive. They also serve light breakfast. There are rice porridge, soft-boiled eggs, coffee, milk, yogurt. It's perfect for people who don't focus on breakfast like us. 🥰🥰 📍 The hotel is located next to the Mekong River, 1 km from the Golden Triangle. Most importantly, you can easily walk to the riverside restaurants. There are many restaurants to choose from. 🥰 #Relaxing hotel #River view hotel #Chiang Saen accommodation

Bake time bakery is a homemade shop for every menu and is a shop that produces various bakery products for five-star hotels including many famous restaurants in Chiang Rai province. The shop is located on the banks of the Mekong River. Currently, the shop has expanded to an outdoor zone. The price is not expensive when compared to the quality and taste. Prices start at 45 baht. I like that the taste is not too sweet, it's just right. The cake is soft and delicious, exceeding the price. #NortheasternTeam #WinterMountainTravel #CafeReview #CafeLife #PointingOutDeliciousRestaurant

Chiang Saen is a small but very cozy and interesting city on the banks of the Mekong River. This is a city on the border, because on the other side of the Mekong there is already another state of Laos. Well, just 10 kilometers from Chiang Saen is the famous Golden Triangle, where a third country is added to Thailand and Laos - Myanmar. It is in this town that it is best to stop to study the Golden Triangle. #goldentriangle #urbanexplorer #thailand #awesomepic

When he was a novice, Boonchum spent his third Lent at Wat Phra That Doi Wiang Kaew. When he spent his first and second Lent at Wat Ban Dai Prasit, he had an idea to build Phra That Doi Wiang Kaew.

How to get there - Private car Tourist attractions - Chiang Saen District, Chiang Rai Province Hotel - River Breeze Chiang Saen Restaurant and food - Flon Chiang Saen Shopping - Restaurant & Cafe Flow is a restaurant and cafe on the banks of the Mekong River in Chiang Saen District, Chiang Rai Province. Next to it is the River Breeze Hotel, with a beautiful view and good atmosphere. There are many seating areas to choose from, including an air-conditioned room, an outdoor area with a breeze and a view of the Mekong River and the Laos side, and a seat downstairs by the river arranged like a beach with sand. The food is delicious. We ate clear Tom Yum with catfish (if you come to the Mekong River, you must try the catfish). The taste is rich and delicious. And stir-fried mushrooms with oyster sauce is not expensive at all, only 100-200 baht. The longan cake is also delicious. If you come to Chiang Saen, you will definitely come back. #Cafe by the Mekong River

The food is very delicious. The atmosphere is chill and cool. I like the outdoor tables and straw seats. The live music is also nice, especially international songs. If you come to Chiang Saen, I recommend this restaurant.
