I researched Chiang Rai a bit before arriving in Thailand, but I wasn't sure if I'd be able to fit a trip to this additional Province in. Most Chiang Rai tours are for 3 or more days so you can truly soak it all in. I decided to do a one day tour to scratch the surface and was able to see one of the hot springs and the gold and white temples that were designed by the artist Chalermchai Kositpipat. His vision for these temples is still in progress and being fulfilled today. I also visited the Golden Triangle the area where the borders of Thailand, Laos, and Myanmar meet. I spent a good bit of time at the Opium Museum learning about its history in the Golden Triangle region.
