Once you've explored the ancient, crumbling temples of Chiang Mai, head to her sister city Chiang Rai and check out the nearby hot spring and temples on a full-day tour with roundtrip transport from Chiang Mai.
En route between Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai, make a relaxing pitstop at one of northern Thailand’s thermal springs. Watch as locals boil eggs over the vents as you give yourself a pedicure in the hot pools. Who needs a fancy salon treatment with this beautiful view of the Mae Khachan hot springs?
One of Thailand’s most bizarre and impressive sights is Wat Rong Khun – the White Temple. While it may look like a temple, it’s actually a modern art installation! Wander past the white spires and peaceful pools to enter the temple where you’ll find a variety of eccentric art inside. Wat Rong Khun is weird, wonderful, and well worth a visit.
Next, journey to the equally impressive Chiang Rai Blue Temple, dedicated to the dancing tiger. While this temple was completed recently, the locals will tell you ancient legends about wild tigers that lurked in the jungle several centuries ago. This bright blue and gold temple is visually stunning and hosts an enormous seated Buddha.
If the White and Blue Temples weren’t cool enough, complete the color palette by swinging by the Black House. This quirky gallery is designed to represent the depths of hell – enter if you dare.
Return to Chiang Mai in an air-conditioned coach after a full-day tour of the Chiang Rai temples.
