For now, the number of duty-free shops has been increased and popular brand outlets will be introduced soon enough.

Being a year-round destination, Chiang Rai can be visited at any time of the year, and the experience would never be underwhelming. The summer peak-season lasts from March to May whereas the winter peak-season starts from late October and ends by February. The average daytime temperature is 26°C during the summer season and 21°C during the winter season. During any peak-season, Chiang Rai is jam-packed with locals and tourists alike. Most of the festivals take place during the above mentioned months. For instance, the Greater Mekong Subregion Culture Trade and Tourism festival is usually held in January which is followed by the King Mengrai Annual Fair and Phu Chi Fah Dok Sieo Festival in February. In March the Elephant Polo Tournament and Chang Thai Ruam Mitr Day are celebrated with much enthusiasm.

Wat Rong Khun: This beautiful white complex looks more like a fairy-tale palace than a temple. The pond right in front of the temple complements its magnificence with the crystal clear image that it reflects. Undoubtedly, it is a photographer’s dream come true. However, the majority of people visit it for its spiritual implications. Locals and foreigners alike find themselves in their element here. Considering the nature of the place, tourists should remain dignified and avoid wearing revealing clothes.

Wat Rong Seur Ten: A completely different specimen of Buddhist architecture, this temple is blue in colour and rich in embellishments. The blue and gold colour combination is a sight for sore eyes. The white-Buddha statue is a must-see. It is a ten-minute drive from the city centre. Schedule your trip in a way that a good 3-4 hours can be spent in this temple. Avoid binge sightseeing and spend quality time at each temple to absorb its ambience.

Wat Phra Kaew: This temple dates back to the 14th century and houses the famous Emerald Buddha. Chiefly distinguished by its conical buildings, shiny and brass-coloured, the temple extends into several quarters and gardens. Take off your shoes and leave the material cares behind. One simply cannot travel to Chiang Rai and not visit the Wat Phra Kaew Temple. Keep in mind that nobody is allowed to touch the Emerald Buddha!

Singha Park: A large-scale farmhouse that is a magnet for school field trips and horticultural tours, the Singha Park is also a favourite picnic spot among tourists. Families can spend leisurely hours in between tea plantations and orchards whereas solo trekkers can blaze the trail and get a good workout.

Doi Tung: Unlike most public botanical gardens, Doi Tung serves as an excellent recreational spot away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Beautiful landscapes and floral gardens serve as a picturesque backdrop to activities like museum visits, folk dances and picnics.

Tuk-Tuk: Tuk-tuk is a traveller's best friend in Thailand. Getting around Chiang Rai in a tuk-tuk is cheap, efficient and convenient. Your driver is well acquainted with the main tourist attractions as well as some of the lesser known spots. There are no tuk-tuk stops to worry about. If one happens to pass you by, just wave your hand and if it is empty, it is yours. Commuters can even share their ride with willing passengers and this cuts the cost even further.

Rental motorbike: For a more personal touch to your travel experience, why not rent a motorbike? Get your GoPro gear on and ride through the exotic roads of Chiang Rai. It must be mentioned however that you will be required to leave your passport with the auto-rental company as part of the deal.
