Breakfast at Khao Soi Thao Gae Ek · 9:11 AM

The Khao Soi here could be served with a variety of ingredients, from pork, beef, chicken or seafood. Not bad.

Visit at Wat Huay Pla Kang: Goddess of Mercy Chiang Rai · 11:09 AM

This temple has a huge statue of Goddess of Mercy, which you can take a lift up to the head portion, where you can look out from her eyes and forehead. Below the goddess are two great dragons protecting the stairs. Though this temple might feel a bit more commercial, I think it is still worth a visit. There is also another side temple and a pagoda.

Lunch at Polar Boulangerie and Patisserie · 1:36 PM

A fairly hidden but known cafe. Nice outdoor environment with busy indoor seatings. Food wise is fairly decent. Love the vibe. BBQ Pull Pork Sandwiches (125B) - nice Hot Cappuccino (75B) Matcha Roll Cake (105B) - pretty good, but too small for the price.

Stay at Ma Family Coffee Farm · 5:08 PM

Quite a long mountain road drive from Chiang Rai, but it is worth it. Serene and beautiful atmosphere, with rolling hills. Enjoy the local mountain food dinner (wonderful pork and Egg), and the coffee. Don't forget their alcoholic drinks made from Honey, really good. A peaceful and comfortable stay, and friendly family host.

Enjoy the morning breakfast with a view.

Lunch at Larb Sanam Keela · 12:52 PM

Great northern pork curry at affordable price. Bamboo shoot salad is nice and spicy.

Coffee at Pasang · 1:59 PM

A simple and nice coffee place. They serve Pineapple coffee, which is interesting. A nice place to chill, cakes are decent.

Visit at View point Mae Salong Nai · 3:37 PM

A rest stop with a view point. Do stop by if it is convenient, else it is not worth a detour. Mae Salong beauty can be enjoyed at many places along the way.

Stay at Baan Hom Muen Li · 4:30 PM

Clean, simple, affordable hotel with a good view. It is very near to the town. Love the morning breakfast here, especially Udon Noodles, Soy Bean and Fried Fritters.

Visit at Wang Put Tan Tea Plantation · 9:04 AM

Love this beautiful tea plantation. They provide some local costumes for photography, a few great photo spot, beautiful tea plantation on the hill, and chill with tea and snacks. I would recommend 2h to fully explore this place.

Lunch at Imm Pochana · 1:58 PM

This restaurant is slightly hidden, might not look like much, but the food is really good. Pork Knuckles small (250B) is soft and flavourful. Eat it together with steam and fried bun, just perfect. I am usually not a fan of soft pork knuckles, but this is just so good.

Visit at The Martyr's Memorial Hall (Chinese Division 93 Memorial) · 3:34 PM

It is a well kept memorial.

Visit at Phrathat Chedi Srinagarindra Stit Maha Santi Khiri · 4:35 PM

Temple at the highest point of Mae Salong. A simple temple with a great view of the mountain range. You walk up a few hundred steps of stairs from the town, or drive a few km up a steep road to reach here. Both entry points have a car park.

Dinner at Yunnan Chinese Noodle · 5:32 PM

Said to be the best noodle in town, which is pretty good. I prefer the breakfast noodle at our hotel Baan Hom Muen Li, but my wife likes the noodle here better. The lady boss can speak Chinese and Cantonese.
