Welcome to Hotels in Chiang Rai
CHIANG RAI
Sited on the banks of the Mae Kok River. Chiang Rai is about 100 miles North of
Chiang Mai and 40 miles Southwest of Chiang Saen where the Ruak flows into the Mekong to
form the golden triangle where Thailand meets the borders of Laos and Burma. The hills and
mountains are cloaked in thick green vegetation and have gorges with fast flowing rivers
running through them. Chiang Rai is just over one hour’s flight from Bangkok and
longtail speedboats can be taken from Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai. Bicycles are a common form
of transport and tracks link to the scattered hill tribe villages.
