Private Half-Day Hmong Nong Hoi Village and Botanic Garden in Chiang Mai

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Hilltribe Villages, Chiang Mai Thailand

We leave your hotel and head in northern direction to one of the leading Hmong Hilltribe villages, high in the mountains. Quite a number of these indigenous communities have their ancestral roots from southern China. It is not uncommon to see still Chinese traits and cultural elements being proudly displayed at Baan Hmong Nong Hoi Mai. This village is particularly special as it has been granted the title of Royal Projects; with the support of the Royal Family, these villagers have turned the slopes and fertile landscapes in a patchwork of agriculture and plantations.

Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes

Stop At: Queen Sirikit Museum of Textiles, Na Phra Lan Rd Ratsadakorn-Bhibhathana Building, The Grand Palace, Bangkok 10200 Thailand

We follow the road further to one of the other projects that has been named out of the deep respect the Thai people have for the Royal Family. The Queen Sirikit Botanic Garden (formerly known as the Mae Sa Botanic Garden) has been primarily set up as a conservation and research center for Thai flora. It is one of the first botanical gardens in the country that supports education for those keen in pursuing a career in not only the botanical side but also those interested in biodiversity and environmental conservation. Outside of these values, the garden is a fabulous collection of plants, flowers and trees that continue to attract visitors from around the country. Part of the project is the nearby orchid farm where various species of this delicate flower are on display.

Duration: 2 hours
