- Wat Rong Khun - Rong Khun Temple stands out from other temples due to its entirely radiant white construction, featuring sparkling reflections from mirrored glass mosaics embedded in the white plaster. This temple is the brainchild of Mr. Chalermchai Kositpipat, one of Thailand’s most celebrated artists, who envisioned a temple in white to symbolize the purity of Lord Buddha. The artist continues to infuse his religious beliefs and passion for enriching Buddhism in Thailand into his contemporary art design.
- Baan Dam Museum - If booking the Baan Dam (Black Museum) program, it is a 207 km drive from the center of Chiang Mai city to Baan Dam (Black House), a unique creation by national artist Thawan Duchanee. Part art studio, part museum, and part home, Baan Dam is an eclectic mix of traditional northern Thai buildings interspersed with some striking modern designs. Baan Dam offers a thought-provoking blend of the playful, the surreal, and the somber. While some of the artwork and themes may not appeal to everyone, visiting the Black House is recommended when in Chiang Rai.
- Wat Rong Seur Ten (Blue Temple) - Chiang Rai’s Blue Temple, or Wat Rong Seua Ten, is located in Rong Suea Ten in the Rimkok district, a few kilometers outside Chiang Rai. It is a relatively new temple, still under construction, although its main hall is now complete. The temple is renowned for its stunning blue interior and a large white Buddha that captivates visitors. The paintings inside are reminiscent of the style seen in the White Temple (Wat Rong Khun). The impressive standing white Buddha at the back is also remarkable. With the White Temple, the Black House, and the Blue Temple, Chiang Rai is truly the city of colorful temples!
- Karen Long Neck Village - Visiting one of the many Karen Long Neck villages in Thailand offers one of the most exotic experiences imaginable. The mystery and beauty surrounding the tradition of wearing brass rings as exaggerated jewelry are best appreciated in person rather than in a book. Although there were ethical concerns about whether these hill tribe villages might feel like human zoos, the decision to visit was rewarding. It is a real-life National Geographic Magazine experience that must be seen to be believed.
- Mae Khachan Hot Spring - Mae Khachan Hot Springs is located in Wiang Pa Pao, Chiang Rai. The thermal waters can be enjoyed at several locations in this district, conveniently situated next to the main Chiang Mai – Chiang Rai Highway 118 (on both sides of the road). While most tour operators describe this as an attraction, it is also a necessary stop for drivers needing a break halfway to Chiang Rai, whether desired or not.

- Lalitta Café - If booking the Lalita Cafe Program, Lalita Cafe in Chiang Rai offers a new Himmapan Forest experience in Chiang Rai Province. It is a magnificent destination waiting for everyone to visit and explore. Experience this unique land only at Lalitta Café.
