A meeting of Cultures

Muang Singh is a little gem of a town. The town itself is not so distinctive, but the location is special. It is only a few km from the chinese border, and is surrounded by hilltribe villages. This interesting mix of cultures results in a very vibrant market! There are also endless trekking possiblities with overnight stays in hill tribe villages..

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:A great place for trekking and meeting hill tribes. Pleasantly cool after the heat of the south..
  • Cons:None
  • In a nutshell:A walkers paradise, and great place to buy hilltribe crafts.
