Hello, this post is a travelogue of my New Year's holiday.

This journey began in Ubon Ratchathani, Bangkok, Tak, Doi Ang Khang, and Phu Chi Fa.

December 29, 2014 to January 4, 2015.

The plan changed every minute. At first, we were going to camp at Khao Kho in Phetchabun, but we ended up in Chiang Rai instead.



Note: The author may not be a skilled writer and may not have described the trip well, but there are many pictures. The trip involved 6 people, including the author and their sibling, who are from Ubon Ratchathani.

To visit my aunt's family in Bangkok and take a private car to travel.

Let's begin our journey.

December 29, 2014

Departing from Ubon Ratchathani to Bangkok by train at 6:30 PM, arriving in Bangkok at 6:30 AM.


December 30, 2014

Upon arriving in Bangkok, I stayed with a relative for one night.

The author secretly went to watch a movie at SF The Mall Tha Phra. They originally wanted to watch The Hobbit in IMAX, but they have already seen The Hobbit twice (personal preference).


December 31, 2014

Our journey begins with the destination of "Khao Kho, Phetchabun".

However, after driving for a while, I heard on the traffic radio that the road to Phetchabun was heavily congested. So, I made a sudden change of plan for the first time.

The destination is "Pai, Mae Hong Son".


The journey was a nomadic one, sleeping wherever night fell. Upon reaching Tak Province, we camped at Taksin Maharat National Park.

The park will feature performances by various ethnic groups, such as the Musoe and the Hmong (performed by actual members of these groups). Tonight's countdown will take place inside a tent. It's very cold! 555


January 1, 2015

Wake up early and walk to watch the sunrise at the viewpoint of Taksin Maharat National Park.


Embark on a journey to "Pai, Mae Hong Son".

However, upon arriving in Chiang Mai, we made a second impromptu change of plans due to the late hour. Instead of heading to Pai, we opted for Doi Ang Khang.

We arrived at Doi Ang Khang at around 5:00 PM, just as the sun was setting. The road up to Doi Ang Khang is very steep, much steeper than Doi Inthanon, and there are many sharp curves. I wouldn't want to drive a motorcycle up there!

Upon arrival, we set up our tents and immediately went out to take pictures. The weather was extremely cold.


A quick photo with the sign, or else they'll say I didn't make it. Hehe.


January 2, 2015

Wake up early to watch the sunrise at the Mon Son viewpoint, Doi Ang Khang.


The journey to Angkhang Royal Agricultural Station is approximately 3 kilometers from the campsite.

The entrance fee was 50 baht per person when we went. It was extremely crowded because it was the New Year's holiday. There was almost no parking available.


A rapid succession of flower images.


Sakura!


Take a macro shot of the flower's stamen.


Let's take a look at our daily meals.

Everything tastes delicious right now.


A warm cup of Ovaltine with a side of cookies for a delightful morning treat.

Khao soi is a must-try dish when visiting the north (especially after descending from Doi Ang Khang).


After that, we traveled to Phu Chi Fa in Chiang Rai Province. We arrived just as it was getting dark.

Find a place to pitch a tent, cook, stargaze, make a fire, and then sleep.


January 3, 2015

In the afternoon, we went to Phu Chi Fa.


We have arrived at "Phu Chi Fa".


After that, I traveled back to Bangkok. I left Phu Chi Fa around 2 pm and arrived in Bangkok around 3 am.


January 4, 2015

I took the train back to Ubon Ratchathani and arrived at 5 am. I'm exhausted.

The journey has come to an end. This is a travelogue with almost no reviews.

See you again on the next trip. Thank you to everyone who stumbled upon this.
