September 5: First encounter with Chiang Mai

After arriving in Thailand in the afternoon, after lunch, everyone started touring under the leadership of the tour guide. Walking on the streets of Thailand, everything slows down. Temporarily put aside the busy and stressful daily work and enjoy the peace and leisure of the moment. ※ Chiang Mai University sightseeing Chiang Mai University is the only national university in the city and the leading institution of higher learning in northern Thailand. Everyone took the school sightseeing bus to tour the university. There are beautiful lakes and buildings on the campus, which makes people feel the strong academic atmosphere.

※Temple Suthep "Shuanglong Temple" is a famous mountain in northern Thailand and a Buddhist holy place. The mountain is surrounded by white clouds and blooming flowers. There are two colorful multi-headed dragons on the temple gate, which are unique in shape; on the mountainside is the Fulatat Temple, also known as Shuanglong Temple, where visitors can climb up the stairs; inside the temple there is a sitting meditation Buddha statue who composed Buddhist poems, and there is a huge relic pagoda on the top of the mountain. Thailand's Buddhist culture is extremely popular and there are many temples. Looking at such devout pedestrians, everyone can't help but join hands and pray together, hoping that the little wishes in their hearts can come true.

Thai Cabaret Show
Thailand’s lively nightlife included a cabaret performance. The performers impressed the team with their elegant stage presence, costumes and long, glossy hair. After the show, colleagues took photographs with the cast and enjoyed another side of Thai culture.

September 6: Travel in Chiang Mai※Chiang Mai Blue Temple Chiang Mai Blue Temple is named because the main color of its appearance is blue. On the basis of the blue tone, pink, green, purple and other brightly colored sculptures are added. The architectural style combines Lanna and Burmese styles. Coupled with exquisite and intricate wooden carvings and sparkling gold foil, its brilliant colors really resemble a wonderful underwater world.

※ Medanman Wild Elephant Camp In Thailand, elephants are sacred animals and the closest friends, and they are objects that need protection. When you come to Chiang Mai, you can get up close and personal with the elephants. You can watch them perform silly performances such as playing football and painting, and you can also enjoy the fun of riding an elephant together.

※Afternoon tea at Meiping Hotel "There are many stories in this small town, full of joy and joy. If you come to this small town, you will gain a lot..." Chiang Mai was one of the favorite towns of singer Teresa Teng during her lifetime. Meiping Hotel was the hotel where Miss Teresa Teng stayed every time she visited Chiang Mai during her lifetime, and she always stayed in the Princess Suite No. 1502, which was also the place where she finally passed away. After lunch, everyone went to Meiping Hotel to enjoy a peaceful Thai afternoon tea and quietly experience the story of the small town.

※3D Illusion Art Museum The first 3D Illusion Art Museum in Chiang Mai. This super cool museum brings together many 3D paintings. The works are painted on the wall and appear lifelike. Illusion art allows visitors to have the opportunity to contact and integrate with the paintings, making people believe that they are real, just like people are in the paintings.

September 7: Encounter with Chiang Rai※Tuk-tuk tour of the ancient city. The most fascinating thing about Chiang Mai is the old city. The old city has a history of more than 700 years and is square in shape. It still retains part of the old city wall and a complete moat. There are many traditional temples in the old city, including the Big Chedi Temple, Pasing Temple, Chiangman Temple, etc. Next to the south gate is a large market where tourists and locals alike like to take a walk. Everyone took a unique tuk-tuk in Chiang Mai to sightsee the ancient city. The ancient scenery intertwined with our eyes and the speed of the wind with our ears looked so breathtaking.

※The White Temple in Chiang Rai The White Temple can be called a work of art in the architectural world. This is the greatest work in his life created by the famous Thai architect Mr. Chalermchai who spent his entire life. The pure white roof, walls, base, and the glass inlaid on the walls reflect dazzling silver light from time to time, like a beautiful building that has fallen into the mortal world. As soon as they entered the White Temple, everyone was deeply attracted by the exquisite fairyland-like temple in front of them, which made people marvel at the charm of human architectural art!

September 8: Explore Chiang Rai※Golden Triangle The Golden Triangle refers to a triangular area located on the border of Thailand, Myanmar and Laos in Southeast Asia. This area has long been rich in opium and other drugs and is the world's main drug producing area, making the "Golden Triangle" famous around the world.

In order to warn future generations, the Thai royal family built an opium museum here, the only one in the world with unique architecture and exhibition methods. Through the visit, we can learn more about the production process, sales, and poisoning of opium. Afterwards, take a long-tail boat tour of the Mekong River. On one side is Myanmar, which is poor but actively promotes tourism; on the other side is Thailand, which has a prosperous economy; and on the other side is Laos, which maintains its original flavor and simple folk customs. Enjoy the scenery of the three places on both sides of the strait.

※Chiang Rai Black Temple There are "White Temple" and "Black Temple" in Chiang Rai, which are said to represent the expressions of survival and death respectively. The White Temple and the Black Temple are not real temples, but "works of art" built by two modern artists who spent their lives building them. The Black Temple, also called the Black House, was designed and built by Thai artist Thawan Duchanee over a period of 36 years. The entire black house and its architectural complex form a huge open, garden-style private art museum.

※Thai massage Thai massage is one of the ancient medical cultures of Thailand, with a history of more than 4,000 years and a long history. The ancient Thai royal family used it as one of the methods to strengthen the body and treat physical strain, and it has become a natural treatment valued at home and abroad. After running for three or four days, I enjoyed the relaxation and tranquility brought by Thai massage at this moment, and my whole body felt relieved.

September 9: Farewell to ThailandThe happy moments are always short-lived. When the trip is over, everyone still remembers the trip to Chiang Mai, Thailand. The intoxicating scenery, indulgent release, and relaxed mood are rolling in their minds.
