Hello everyone : )
This trip we will take you to visit the mountains and hills.
3 days 2 nights at the end of the rainy season, early winter.
We are happy every time we travel.
Let's travel with us : )
Day 1 : 28-09-2018
We flew from U-Tapao to Chiang Mai.
Hello Chiang Mai
This trip, we traveled from Chiang Mai and looped back through Chiang Rai.
We arrived in Chiang Mai around 7:30 AM. We had to wait for our friends,
so we had time to walk around Tha Pae Gate and grab some breakfast.
We took a break from taking photos to grab some noodles at a local shop. We were starving!
After our savory meal, we moved on to dessert.
After spending some time relaxing, we went to wait for our friends at the "Chang Phuak" bus stop.
We planned to travel by public transportation.
There are various options available, including orange buses (both fan and air-conditioned) and vans.
We purchased tickets for the 11:20 a.m. departure on the orange sweet-chilled bus.
Our destination is Mae Kha, Fang District. Let's go!
The bus was a natural air-conditioned vehicle, with passengers constantly boarding, some standing and some sitting.
Our journey took approximately 3 hours, during which we dozed on and off.
Upon reaching our destination, we were famished and stopped for some Khao Soi and Som Tam.
Now that we are full, let's move on.
The first stop of the day is the "Royal Project Doi Kham Museum".
We are now visiting the interior of the project. Here, there will be staff to provide guidance and knowledge.
About the history of this royal project.
After the presentation, we took a walk around the project site.
This is the overall atmosphere of the project.
After we finished walking around and taking pictures, we continued on to our next destination.
The next place was "BaanIncome", a homestay owned by a friend of ours. We had the opportunity to visit and say hello.
It's almost six in the evening, and I'm starting to get hungry. Let's move on to the next place.
Next stop... "Baan Rai Chaidan" restaurant.
After a satisfying meal and catching up with university friends, we decided to part ways for the evening. Our destination for the night was "Chompoo Homestay," located in Huai Chomphu Subdistrict, Mueang District, Chiang Rai Province.
The first night of this trip.
Before bed tonight, let's have some chrysanthemum tea.
Good night and sweet dreams everyone : )
Day 2 : 29-09-2018
Good morning everyone!
Last night, I slept soundly listening to the sound of rain.
Today, we woke up early to see the sea of fog...but!!! Wait, the rain hasn't stopped yet TT_TT
We finished getting ready and the rain stopped. There was talk that we might not see the sea of fog as we had hoped.
That's okay...we still have tomorrow morning, hehe.
Our destination is... "Doi Kad Phi Forest Park".
We have arrived at the top of Doi Kad Phi Forest Park.
Today, we have a light drizzle and the fog is a bit scattered.
After enjoying the scenery and taking plenty of photos, it was time to head back down for breakfast.
The atmosphere on the way back to the accommodation...
Let's stop by and grab some food, shall we? Hehe.
Here it is... my favorite.
The Culinary Lifestyle of the Locals
Morning Ambiance at the Accommodation
Can we take this atmosphere back with us?
Breakfast at Chompoo Homestay
I really enjoyed it, especially the "tomato chili paste".
After the meal, the accommodation also offered a coffee-making class.
Start with selecting the seeds first.
Followed by roasting.
Let's boil it now.
Here it is, coffee made by us!
After enjoying a cup of coffee, we prepared for the second day of our trip.
The brave boy, Tai, who is a very lovely child.
The next place is... "Pink Flower Garden".
This winter, the garden will also be open for accommodation.
The atmosphere is very good.
The avocado tree is also a good place to take pictures, haha.
Inquiry about accommodation and tour guide services available. The owner is very friendly.
The atmosphere around the garden
The garden is home to a wide variety of vegetables and fruits.
A scenic viewpoint within the Chomphu Garden.
This is a great place to watch the sunset.

Next stop... "Hom Padin Coffee Shop"
Let's stop here for coffee and snacks.
The food is delicious, and the drinks are also delicious.

Next stop: "Project Hundred Hearts of Love"
The Roj Jai Rak Project: Promoting Honest Livelihoods in Local Communities
The Roj Jai Rak Project aims to empower local communities by encouraging residents to engage in ethical and sustainable livelihoods.
Let's take a look at the surrounding atmosphere.
This is another very interesting place.
We will have many photo spots, so you can have a great time.
After taking photos and walking around the project, it's time to move on.
The Five Kings Hot Spring is a natural hot spring.
However, it is currently undergoing renovations.
On the way back to the accommodation. Today we have time to go back to rest and have dinner.
Dinner tonight at the homestay is the same as usual.
After we finished dinner,
The homestay also demonstrated how to steam and massage tea for us to see.
After finishing steaming tea, we chatted for a while, then I excused myself to go to sleep.
Day 3: September 30, 2018
Good morning on the last day of our trip!
We woke up early again today, hoping to catch a glimpse of the "sea of mist".
We returned to Doi Kad Phi National Park.
The rain has stopped today, the weather is nice, and we have finally met.
"Sea of mist"
This trip was a success. We saw a sea of fog, cool weather, and a little rain.
Doi Kad Phi Forest Park was also featured in the drama "Only Love Secret Moon".
Let's continue to see the atmosphere.
There will be a lot of photos, I pressed the shutter a lot, but the photos are not as beautiful as they actually look. Haha.
Camping is allowed at the top of the park, but it is not yet the cold season, so there are few tourists.
We were able to take pictures to our heart's content.
I really like this kind of weather. : )
After taking photos until the fog began to clear, it was time to return for breakfast before heading back.
The breakfast at Chompoo Homestay before leaving was truly delicious.
If you'd like to try it, come and stay here. It's a great way to support the community and promote sustainable tourism.
After breakfast, it was time to head to Chiang Rai city.
The journey from Huay Chompoo to Chiang Rai took about 1.30 hours.
Next stop... "Ryokan Cafe"
We have arrived! The shop is very cute and the atmosphere is great.
This place also offers accommodation and has many great photo spots.
After taking photos, it was time for us to move on, as my friend had to catch a flight back.
After dropping off our friends, we had about 3 hours to spare.
Our next destination..."Wat Huai Pla Kang"
Let's visit the temple and make merit together. The temple is very beautiful.
After making merit, we're starting to feel hungry. Let's go find something to eat quickly.
"Khao Soi Gai Por Jai Restaurant"
We read reviews saying this restaurant was amazing, so we had to stop by and try it for ourselves.
Delicious, affordable, and excellent.
Now that we're full, where should we go next? Let's take some photos before we leave.
We stopped by "Manorom Chiang Rai" coffee shop for a photo op, but didn't get to try the coffee. We were already too full!
After taking photos, we headed to the airport to fly back home. Bye-bye!
"That's it for our 3-day, 2-night trip to Chiang Rai at the end of the rainy season and the beginning of the cold season.
This trip, we focused on visiting local communities, places that are not yet well-known to tourists.
We would like to invite everyone to travel to distribute income to the communities.
Huai Chomphu is a village located on a mountain with a lot of beautiful nature to experience.
Please come and visit us!
Because traveling is the happiness we are looking for.
"Along the way" there are many stories for us to encounter.
Bye-bye, see you again!
Please stay tuned.
The photo may not be very clear, but it was taken with all my heart.
