We decided to explore Chiang Rai by taking a 1 day tour starting from 7am. Firstly, we visited the Chiang Rai Hot spring, it is really hot (first time going to hot spring).
After the hot spring, we traveled another 1 hour to reach the next destination (White Temple). This White Temple is so nicely built and interesting, this temple is the 20th century temple with picture of Doraemon, Sailor Moon, Iron man and interesting cartoon character. Take note that this temple is yet to complete and may take years to finish it.

We went to the long neck village. The brass that they are wear is very heavy, could not imagine that on us.

Overall, I feel that it is very tiring journey (3 hours journey back) to see the golden triangle and hot spring and long neck tribe in Chiang Rai. I would recommend to go Pai instead as it is very relaxing with good scenery, weather and good food.
