Mae Hong Son: Rainy season, still fun!

Mae Hong Son is a great place to visit during the rainy season.

Crucially, there's no need to endure the winding roads anymore! Mae Hong Son now has direct flights from Bangkok.

The City of Three Mists: Unveiling the Beauty of Mae Hong Son Year-Round

While many associate Mae Hong Son with the evocative phrase "City of Three Mists" and its captivating beauty during the cool winter months, the truth is that this enchanting destination offers a unique charm throughout the year.

While the allure of the winter season with its refreshing temperatures is undeniable, venturing beyond the peak season unveils a different side of Mae Hong Son. The warmer months, though potentially hotter, present an equally captivating landscape, where lush greenery and vibrant blooms paint a breathtaking picture.

The allure of Mae Hong Son extends beyond its seasonal variations. Its diverse attractions, from serene temples nestled amidst verdant hills to cascading waterfalls and vibrant local markets, offer a captivating experience regardless of the time of year.

So, whether you seek the refreshing embrace of winter or the vibrant hues of summer, Mae Hong Son promises an unforgettable journey, immersing you in its rich culture, breathtaking landscapes, and warm hospitality.

Each season possesses its own unique charm.

Another thing is that if you come during the rainy season, it will be a bit greener and there won't be as many people as during the winter season.

Let's go!

This time, we chose to travel with Nok Air. Nok Air now offers direct flights from Bangkok to Mae Hong Son, so you don't have to endure the thousands of curves by car. If you haven't tried it before, you can take a car and experience the curves for yourself. It's another kind of thrill! 55555

Our first stop is the Sutongpe Bridge, the longest bamboo bridge in Thailand. It stretches from the village of Kung Mai Sak through lush rice fields to the Phusama Forest Monastery.

Every morning, monks walk across this bamboo bridge to collect alms. It is said that if you hold your breath and make a wish while walking to the end of the bridge, your wish will come true. However, the bridge is very long, so be warned! 555

The original text is in Thai and describes a beautiful temple called Wat Chong Klang. The text mentions that the temple is especially beautiful at night when it is lit up with lights. During the winter, there is a walking street near the temple and a lake in the city center that intersects with the walking street. The author describes the atmosphere as "chill" and expresses regret that they are visiting during the rainy season when they cannot enjoy these activities.

Here is the translated text in English:

Wat Chong Klang is a beautiful temple that is especially stunning at night when it is illuminated with lights. During the winter, a walking street is set up near the temple, and a lake in the city center intersects with the walking street, creating a relaxing atmosphere. Unfortunately, I am visiting during the rainy season, so I will not be able to enjoy these activities.

The next stop is Pang Ung. The water level is much lower now than in the winter, probably because it's just the beginning of the rainy season. The weather here is still pleasantly cool, though not as cold as in the winter. It's okay, though. There aren't many people, so you can easily find a good spot to take photos. There are still rafts available for rent, although not as many as during the peak tourist season.

In the late afternoon, we stopped by Wat Phra That Doi Kong Mu to watch the sunset. Unfortunately, we arrived a little late, and the sun was already setting over the horizon.

The view from above at night is breathtaking.

The next morning, we started our day at "Coffee Morning," a trendy local coffee shop.

After visiting the coffee shop, we stopped by the mud volcano. It was so black! 555

To conclude this trip, we visited Ban Rak Thai. We must say that this is our favorite place. The charming atmosphere of the village, the friendly locals, the cool weather, and many other factors make this place incredibly appealing.

Don't forget to take a bike ride when you arrive here. The atmosphere around the village is very warm and friendly.

Ending with a chill atmosphere from a coffee shop in the Rak Thai village ^^

May you find it. Good luck! 😁
