Chiang Rai hotels - Hotel discounts direct from the wholesaler
to you
The northernmost province, Chiang Rai is 785 km north of Bangkok and
is 580 m above sea level. It is one of the more rural parts of Thailand,
where natural jungle and farm lands cover much of the landscape. The more
mountainous areas, where many crops won't survive have over the past,
given their lands to the cultivation of poppies, which were used in the
making of opium and until recently this was Chiang Rai's main source of
income other than tourism. This trade, due to the clamping down of law
enforcement in the area, is now all but gone and Mayanma (Burma) and Laos
are now the prime producers this narcotic, though the area is still considered
part of the famed 'Golden Triangle'. Below you will find a comprehensive
listing of Chiang Rai Hotels by Locations
