CHIANG RAI – Chiang Rai in northern Thailand has always been a destination of intrigue for me, not least due to its reputation in the infamous Golden Triangle, notorious as one of the world’s major opium cultivation and heroin-producing areas.
Thai cities Bangkok, Phuket and Chiang Mai are destinations popular with Singapore residents. For those who want to venture further, Chiang Rai is an alluring option. The mountainous region, with scenic forest landscapes, is ideal for those in search of a connection with nature.
