Chiang Rai: visiting the controversial Long neck women village & much more…

Chiang Rai is a city situated in northern Thailand, close to the famous Golden Triangle (where the borders of three countries /Thailand, Laos, Myanmar/ meet and where opium used to value the same as gold, hence the name!).

We went on an excursion, which included driving about 240km to visit 10 points starting in the early morning  and finishing around 7pm! Not all of the places are worth visiting, but we have to admit that we wouldn’t have been able to visit half of them on our own, so all in all, the trip was worth doing.
