Mae Hong Son – Thailand's Northwesternmost City, the City of Fog

πŸ“ Travel Destination Introduction
Mae Hong Son, near the Myanmar border, is known as the "City of Fog," a mystical landscape created by mountains and valleys. Although it's one of Thailand's most remote highlands, its natural beauty remains untouched. Dense fog covers the river at dawn, creating a spectacular scene as traditional wooden temples emerge from the mist. The mountain road leading to the Burmese-style temples of Wat Jong Kham and Wat Jong Klang, and Pai, is considered one of Thailand's most beautiful drives.

πŸ›€ Recommended Itinerary
Wat Jong Kham β†’ Wat Jong Klang β†’ Suttonphe Bridge β†’ Viewpoint Cafe β†’ Night Market Exploration.

🌸 Seasonal Attractions
November to February is a popular time for photographers, thanks to the combination of fog and sunrise.

πŸ’‘ Travel Tips
The mountain roads are very winding, so be sure to bring motion sickness medication. The road from Pai to Mae Hong Son is famous for its approximately 762 curves.

πŸš‡ Transportation
Approximately 6 hours by car from Chiang Mai.
