About the Package
Sukhothai
Sukhothai, site of the first independent Thai kingdom, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and straddles the area where the northern and central regions meet. Massive stone Buddha dominates ruins dating from the late 13th century. Sukhothai is the favorite setting for the Loy Krathong (Festival of Lights) celebrated each November.Mae Hong Son
Famously known as The City of Three Mists, Mae Hong Son is covered with a mystical-like haze throughout much of the year. Not far from the Burmese border and long isolated from the outside world, the picturesque town gets its name from its unique elephant-friendly terrain.

This panoramic region is known as a “dream destination” by those seeking natural wonders. Nestled in a deep valley and walled-in by high mountain ranges, travelers often use Mae Hong Son as a base camp for nature treks, elephant riding, and visits to hilltribe peoples-such as a the long-neck women of the Paduang tribe, whose limbs are adorned with brass coils. Other ethnic villages in the region include those of the Karen, Lisu, and Lahu peoples.

Popular times to visit are during the colorful Poi Sang Long festival, in March, when local Shan boys, elaborately dressed, are carried around the temples of Wat Jong Kham and Wat Jong Klang in a Buddhist ordination ceremony. And in October, during the Jong Para festival, when villagers display their talents at folk dancing and traditional drama.
