Destination for Your Winter Holiday "Doi Ang Klang, Chaing Mai"

Hello Everybody,

Now it is October and winter holiday season are coming. Of course, the top destination for travellers in winter season is Chaing Mai which is the most famous city in the northern region of Thailand. Generally, Chaing Mai has many interesting places for travellers including mountain, historical site and shopping center.

Today, i'm gonna talk about one of the most famous mountain in Chaing Mai named "Doi Ang Klang". This mountain situatated in Fang district, northern district near Myanmar border, around 137 kilometers from the city center of Chaing Mai. Doi Ang Klang is not only famous in its beautiful mountain scenery but also outstanding in its tough and slant road which is the one of the great lesson for drivers to test. After driving to the camping site, i can feel the cold weather like the feeling when i visited European country at Doi Ang Klang camping site. At the top of the mountain, there're 2-3 sites available for camping. At the camping site, you will see the scenery of beautiful hill together with the view of devious road (look like a snake). Of course, most travellers are now waiting to see the scenenery of the beautiful sunset which is very fascinating for me.

The next morning, i plan to visit other outstanding site of Doi Ang Klang that you can't miss which called "Royal Agricultural Station AngKlang".At this station, you will have a chance to see flowers and plants that usually grow in cold weather countries like tulip, maple and many more. Moreover, fruits in cold weather countries like kiwi can also be found here and you can taste it with very cheap price.

In my opinion, Doi Ang Klang is amazing place for travellers but my recommendation is it will be better for you to hire for local drivers to bring you to the top of this mountain because the road to the top of Doi Ang Klang is very danger for rookie drivers.
