Northern Thailand

by icyjo24 - last update: Mar 30, 2005

Exploring mountains and tribes

Beautiful lush mountains in the North
Sawatdii Chao... Commonly used to say hello in the North. It's a place of lush mountains and diverse cultures. Trek to beautiful waterfalls and visit the various hilltribes such as the Karen, Lahu, Hmong etc. living in the mountains. Unlike the Central part, life in the North is peaceful as its less crowded. Northern Thailand is a region not to be missed if you are planning to visit Thailand. I have been to Northern Thailand twice for long trips in 2001 and 2003.

Here are some photos and travelogues that I have created for the most recent wonderful trip in 2003...I have also uploaded some photos under other parts of Northern Thailand like Chiang Mai etc..Do not miss them out..
