2025 Wiang Kaen Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in April)

Location: Wat Doi Pha Tang, Chiang Rai Atmosphere: Stop by on your way back from Phu Chi Fa and Doi Pha Tang. It's a small temple, but it offers a very beautiful viewpoint with great photo spots. The road up and down is very steep and narrow, so be careful. Come to make merit and pay respects to the Buddha before or after your trip for a safe journey. Sathu. Coordinates: WGP3+H8F, 4029, Po, Wiang Kaen District, Chiang Rai 57310

#WinterTravel Place: Chiang Rai sea of ​​mist viewing point at Phu Chi Fa Atmosphere: One of the most beautiful views in Chiang Rai. The mountain peak is very beautiful. Come early in the morning, which the weather is unpredictable. The weather is windy and cloudy. The hiking time is not long, about 20 minutes. Suitable for beginners, even families with young children. The mountain peak is not very crowded and there are only a few beautiful photo spots. You can see a 360-degree view and the sign of the border between Laos and Thailand.

Location: Watershed Management Ngao - Ngao Watershed Management Ngao - Ngao, Chiang Rai Atmosphere: Beautiful flower scenery, Thai Cherry Blossoms, pink flowers or Thai Sakura. The road up is slightly steep, drive slowly. During winter, this place is worth visiting and taking pictures with the Thai Cherry Blossoms. There are many trees and they bloom beautifully. Coordinates: VF42+7PF, Unnamed Road, Po, Wiang Kaen District, Chiang Rai 57310

#WinterTravel Location: Banpot Wittaya School Banpot Wittaya School (Cherry Blossoms) Atmosphere: During the blooming of the Himalayan cherry blossoms, Banpot Wittaya School is another popular place to come and see the beauty of the Himalayan cherry blossoms. They are blooming all over the school, very beautiful. But when I went, they were just starting to bloom, so there weren't many flowers yet. What a shame.

Many people may have heard of Phu Chi Fa, but Chiang Rai also has Phu Chi Dao and Phu Chi Duen. ⭐⭐ Today, we will introduce Phu Chi Dao, another mountain in Chiang Rai. I assure you that the atmosphere is no less than Phu Chi Fa. 😁 As for how to go up the mountain, you have to hire a four-wheel drive driver to drive you up first. The fare is 100 baht per person. It takes about 15 minutes to get to the entrance to the mountain. The reason you can't drive up by yourself is because the road is very steep and dangerous. It's better to hire a four-wheel drive driver to sit and relax. 😅 When you reach the entrance to the mountain, you have to walk up for about 300 meters. Phu Chi Dao is about 1,800 meters high (higher than Phu Chi Fa and Doi Pha Tang). The path up is a bit steep. If you don't exercise often, you might get tired. I recommend bringing a bottle of water. For beginners, there are poles to help you walk up. You can walk up comfortably and leisurely. Once you reach the top, it's worth it. The air up there is cool and comfortable. You can sit and rest until you're no longer tired. You can take pictures. And enjoy the atmosphere that is definitely unlike any other. On top, there are long wooden chairs for you to sit and rest. For friends who want to see the sunset, Phu Chi Dao has a very beautiful sunset corner. 🌄 But I recommend that if you are waiting to see the sunset, you should bring a flashlight. The way down will be quite dark when the sun sets, so you have to walk carefully or you will slip. 😂 #MissingNature #Travel #WaitingForTheDayToDepart

Phu Chi Fa is the most beautiful and famous viewpoint of the sea of ​​mist in Chiang Rai, especially in the early morning when you can see the sunrise with the sea of ​​mist covering the mountains beautifully. The scenery around Phu Chi Fa is impressive with the mountains that stretch as far as the eye can see. Tourists often travel up to stay at homestays in nearby villages to wake up to see the beauty in the morning. #triptravelasia #chiangrai #naturetourism #missnature #naturetherapy

During the Chinese New Year festival, I would like to invite everyone to visit a beautiful temple in Chiang Rai. The name is "Wat Zhong Hua", Pha Tang. It is a small Chinese-style temple on a hill. It has just recently been renovated. It stands out and can be seen from afar, starting from the red temple gate. The temple is not very big, but most importantly, it is a temple with a very beautiful view, especially if you come during the winter around January, when the pink Himalayan cherry blossoms are blooming all over the temple. It is very beautiful. The weather is cool and comfortable. If you come to visit Doi Pha Tang, you can stop by Wat Zhong Hua to pay homage to the Goddess of Mercy, Phra Sangkachai, and cast lots for good luck and blessings. You can come all year round. 📍Location: Wat Zhong Hua, Pha Tang, Tambon Por, Amphoe Wiang Kaen, Chiang Rai Province (Located above Banphot Witthaya School, Secondary School) #ChineseNewYear2567 #Wat Zhong Hua #Doi Pha Tang #Chiang Rai is worth visiting #Himalayan cherry blossoms, Chiang Rai

#WinterTravel Officially entering winter. Many people must be visiting the sea of ​​fog. One recommended place is "Phu Chi Dao" in Chiang Rai Province. It is considered another beautiful place to see the sea of ​​fog and the sunrise. It is near Phu Chi Dao and is between Doi Pha Tang and Phu Chi Fa. It is about 1,800 meters high. You can see a 360-degree view of nature and the sea of ​​fog. It is so awesome. If you come to Chiang Rai, don't forget to check in. (But we went late and only saw a little fog, but it was very beautiful. 😭😭) 🚗 Travel: Since the road is very steep and the car used must be a 4x4, it is recommended to hire a local car. The round trip fee is 100 baht per person and takes about 15 minutes. 🚶♂️🚶♀️Walk to the top of Phu Chi Dao, about 300 meters, but the road is steep. It is recommended to wear sandals or sneakers so that you can walk comfortably. 📍Location: Phu Chi Dao, Tambon Por, Amphoe Wiang Kaen, Chiang Rai Province #Phu Chi Dao #Chiang Rai attractions #Carry a camera everywhere with a free life

Phu Chi Fa at Good View A wooden box house on a hill, more than 1,300 meters above sea level!!! The weather is cool and comfortable, even on a sunny day, it's not too hot. This rainy season, we would like to recommend you to try visiting #Phu Chi Fa. A homestay on Phu Chi Fa guarantees freshness and coolness. In this rainy season, the forest is green and fresh, looking everywhere is really pleasing to the eye. The rooms have both dome tents in 2 sizes and square houses with complete amenities, a soft 6-foot bed, air conditioning, refrigerator, sink, and bathroom that is just as beautiful as any other with a sink that takes in the view of the mountain like this, like brushing your teeth floating in the sky. Really awesome. The bathtub on the balcony is considered one of the highest bathtubs in the country, I think. For dinner, we had a barbecue and watched the sunset. It ended with a great atmosphere like this. Breakfast: fried eggs and simple wafers Snack before going up to Phu Chi Fa Coordinates: https://maps.app.goo.gl/xYLAtbxR3DesDrgY8?g_st=ic #PhuChiFa #ChiangRaiTravel #ChiangRai #PhuChiFaAccommodation #AccommodationOnTheMountain #BeautifulAccommodation #WishListTakeMeTo

Kaeng Pha Dai is located in Wiang Kaen District, Chiang Rai Province. It is a viewpoint along the Mekong River, the border of Thailand and Laos. It is the furthest point of Thailand. The route is still natural, with beautiful views and good weather. In the winter, the atmosphere is very romantic, with fog, beautiful views, and the most natural conditions. There are restaurants and toilets. It is easy to travel. The road may be damaged in some parts, but it is still good. You should use a car because if you are a motorcycle, it may be difficult and a bit dangerous. It takes quite a while to travel. It is about 2-3 hours from Chiang Rai city, depending on the speed of the car. But when you get there, it is worth it. You will see a strange view of the Mekong River. There are many rocks and islands in the middle of the river.

Address - Phu Chi Fa National Park is located in Tambon Tap Tao, Amphoe Thoeng, Chiang Rai Province. Atmosphere/Location - Good atmosphere, cool, beautiful view, very suitable for watching the sunrise. Highlights - The sunrise is very beautiful. It will be very beautiful when the fog is thick.

Winter is here..What could be better than going up to experience the sea of ​​fog on top of a mountain? Phu Chi Fa is one of the interesting mountain peaks in Chiang Rai Province. After walking up the mountain for a while in the early morning, we finally saw the first light of the morning sun on the mountain peak, along with the sea of ​​fog. It was very impressive.❤ #Sea of ​​fog #Phu Chi Fa #Escape with the young man of Jan

The majority of the population is ethnic groups, Hmong and Akha people. It is peaceful and the weather is cool all year round. 🤍🤍🤍#Phu Chi Fa Chiang Rai #Sea of ​​Mist Viewpoint #Sea of ​​Mist near Chiang Rai City #Visit Chiang Rai

And walk up to see the top of Phu Chi Fa. The distance is not very far. But when we went, it was raining. The path may be slippery in some parts, so be careful. We went when it was raining all night. So in the morning, we saw a light mist. #SleepChillBeautifulAccommodation

A glimpse of the sea of mist at Phu Chi Fa 🌤🌿🍃🛵 A hidden jewel in Northern Thailand, near the Laos border, is home to one of the most stunning sunrises you'll ever witness. It's named Phu Chi Fah (), and while it's well-known among Thai visitors to Chiang Rai, it's still relatively unknown to most international visitors. That's all the more reason to put it on your to-do list! The name Phu Chi Fah literally means "mountain that points to the sky," and it's easy to see why. Just look at the silhouette it creates against the morning light. But that isn't even the most exciting aspect. It's like standing on top of the globe once you've reached the summit. We landed at Phu Chi Fah the night before for this excursion and awoke in the wee hours of the morning (as in 5 am early). It's critical to get at the lookout before the sun sets over the horizon, but we were rewarded with a spectacular daybreak. We stood there watching as the sun's warm light poured through the mists that blanketed the mountains below, showing only Laos' jungle-covered summits. #mountainview #chiangrai #thailand #thailandTravel #wanderlust

Address: Unnamed Road, Tambon Tap Tao, Amphoe Thoeng, Chiang Rai 57310 Atmosphere/Location: Arrive early to allow time to walk up to Phu Chi Fa to see the morning mist. We recommend bringing a flashlight and a bottle of drinking water. The weather is great. It's even more awesome in winter.
