Day 5 – Chiang Mai Temple Viewpoint and Hill Tribes

Day 5 – Chiang Mai Temple Viewpoint and Hill Tribes

Then continue higher into the hills, traveling by songtaew, a local truck. Drive along rough dirt roads to the Chang Khien Coffee Research Project. Enjoy a fresh cup of locally-grown Arabica coffee and hear about the North’s flourishing coffee industry.

It’s a short drive onwards to a village inhabited by the White Hmong Hill Tribe. Spend time exploring the village, meeting the inhabitants and learning about the traditions and customs of this unique ethnic group.

Following this insightful village visit, return to the songtaew and drive back to Chiang Mai.

Note: The Chang Khien Coffee Research Project is not guaranteed for a visit. If it is not the time for coffee growing, it is likely to be closed to the public. The alternative for coffee tasting will be at the hill tribe village.
