#14 SEA Teacher Project 5th Batch: Golden Triangle, Mae Sai, Karen Long Neck People, and Blue Temple2/25/2018 On the third weeks, we have a trip with Mrs. Sunny to some place that little bit far from Chiang Rai. But, the place is one of many things to do arround Chiang Rai. Our friend, Carina joined with us to have a trip with Mrs. Sunny. Mrs. Sunny picked us up at 9 morning. The first stop was Golden Triangle. This place is famous for tourist because we can see 3 countries in one place with bordered by a river. Thailand, Myanmar, and Laos. At Golden Triangle, there was a monument that popular on Instagram. So, i wasn't forget to taking a picture there. We brought some souvenir to take to Indonesia The second stop was Mae Sai. Actually, i don't know much about Mae Sai. I never searched before. When we arrived at mae sai arround 20 minutes from Golden Triangle, i felt a great atmosphere. There has a huge market, sells souvenir, food, and clothes. I saw a food that i knew from the thai movie. The taste was good. . And then, Mae Sai is a border area between Thailand and Myanmar. You can go to Myanmar from Thailand by car. But, we just walk into the border and taking picture at the monument. The third place is Mae Fah Luang Garden. In the Past, the Princess of Thailand used to stay in Chiang Rai, at the beautiful house. We can go inside the house, but we didn't take picture there. We can imagine how the princess life in the beautiful palace. The last place was Blue Temple. Located near by the center of Chiang Rai. All blues.

On Thursday, we have a trip with students and teachers from Philiphines to some tourisity places in Chiang Rai. Fortunately, Chiang Rai is a tourism place, you can see tourist everywhere. Mrs. Sunny told us that we will go to Singha Park, White Temple, and watching crocodile show. The first trip was Singha Park. It was such a huge garden made by Singha Company, and you can look arround by shuttle tour and there was a tour guide to explained about Singha Park, but s(he) spoke Thai. The view was wonderful. The first top was tea plantation. we can took picture there. They have a traditional northern costume for farmers and i tried to wear it to looked as a native people. . After looking arround Singha Park, we went to the Wat Rong Kuhn or known with White Temple. The first impression when we saw white temple was beautiful. All white, and the detail was perfect. The last trip was watching crocodile show. Arround 20 minutes from white temple, we arrived at Chang Puak Camp Chiang Rai. We watched 2 people control the crocodile to open their mouth and put their hand into the crocodile mouth. and the sound effect always made us shocked. . Novita told us that she saw karen people behind the crocodile show arena.and yes, i saw them. I really want to meet them, because i am very corious about their community. I felt luck to can saw them directly. But, i thought i was not in the real place. They come from Myanmar 5 years ago, and come to the place like to 'show' themselves to the public. In my opinion, there's nothing different between crocodile show, elephant show, and karen long neck people on that place: as a tourism object. I felt lucky and sad to met them. But, it was amazing experience for me. And the last, we watched elephant show. They kissed me with the proboscis. They can draw a trees, they can played basketball, and they can do the thai massage.
. We went home with the amazing experiences for a day trip with students and teachers from Philiphines. Thanks Damrongratsongkroh School. |
