Golden Triangle Holidays

The Golden Triangle is situated in North Thailand, and surrounded by lush jungle. This in itself is pretty anticlimactic, so a series of bizarre attractions have been erected by the riverside to make up for it.

A giant golden Buddha on a ship, elephant statues where you can clamber to pose atop a palanquin (in exchange for a donation, of course), elaborate shrines to the royal family, half a dozen signs stating that yes, this really is the Golden Triangle and, inevitably, river cruise touts, souvenir shops and Western-style cafes.

Phra That Doi Pu Khao is located on the hill just before the golden triangle and believed to have been built by a king of Wiang Hirannakhon Ngoen Yang in mid-8th century. Remains of antiquities are in the Viharn with crumbled Chedis. This is a pretty spectacular part of the triangle and certainly worth a visit.

Hall of Opium, golden triangle Park is one of the best museums in all Thailand and a very interesting place to visit in the golden triangle. Exhibiting the history of opium around the world and in the area, the process of production, the effects of opium smoking and campaigns to eradicate and substitute the crop. 

House of Opium is a privately run museum, unrelated to and much smaller and more serious in tone than the Hall. Lots of opium paraphernalia and information on the production process from beginning to end.
