Mae Fah Luang Cultural and Artistic Park

During your trip to Chiang Rai, you can visit Mae Fah Luang Cultural Park, located 4 km west of Chiang Rai city center. Built around a large lake, the park is well laid out and houses several wooden buildings and pavilions in the Lanna style.

You will be able to discover:

• The Haw Kham, a tower built from the remains of 32 wooden houses. There is a Buddha inside.
• The Haw Kham Noi and its 19th century murals
• The Haw Kaew, a museum gathering several objects of Lanna civilization.

The place is quiet and relaxing. You can go there if you have some free time or if you’re tired of the crowd. Entrance fee is 200 Bahts, which is a bit expensive compared to other sites of Thailand. That’s probably why there aren’t many visitors.
