Winding road up the hill but towards which direction?
We finally reached after the long and winding road. See...Flags for sale.
There's a fee to visit all the 3 places firstly the villa, secondly the garden and lastly the memorial hall
I think it costs use around THB 200
This is IT!! we explore first the Doi Tung villa. The King of Thailand's mother's Villa.
Entrance to the Doi Tung villa reads this.....
My mum was smart enough to wear a skirt on that day so she ended up looking like this hehehehe. Stylo isn't it?
The Mae Fah Luong Garden. Look at the grass. Looks gross to me actually...
Nicely done with bamboo sticks
and the sun was this high and it was freaking hotz!!
The "monkey cup". If you need to clear flies out of your way get this plant. They help u lots.
this is interesting and amazingly done.
A special species of flower..They did not specify the name of the flower so i can't help it.
i was impressed by this....the flower face downside if you look at it properly and it does look a bit like morning glory except where it was facing and it was white.
The garden with the memorial statue in the middle
a little hut for you to catch a deep breath after the long walk and sweat..
believe in your eyes..nobody spray it white
the flower facing sideways and probably that was were the sun rises.
the discovery has come to an end and this garden is the final one to the Mae Fah Luong. most importantly this is the spot where you can see from the Doi Tung villa.
they offer drinking water in the garden...and it's icy ice coldddd..... didn't dare to drink so i used them to wash my hands. :D. i agree that defeats the purpose but please think of this out of the 100 ppl who actually drinks them?
We then head for lunch in Mae Sai. A little shop near the river which mark the boundary to Cambodia. That's Combodia.
Combadian flag on the left side and Thai on the left.
This is the side of Thailand in Mae-Sai. There is a lot of things for you to buy here in Mae Sai. all affordable.
We rented a place in one of the chalet type lodging in Chiang Rai and it's on top of a hill :S We went through the long winding road, passes through the paddy fields
Dragon fruit orchard
and more paddy fields
and when we finally reach, a 4WD was waiting to transport us up the hill already
This is the little hut that we stayed in on that night.
another type of chalet for 2.
The dining table. open air.
Hangers made from bamboo. creative but not practical. not strong enough to hang my towel even.
