Singha Park Chiang Rai: International Balloon Fiesta 2017

Thailand’s northernmost province, Chiang Rai is known for being part of the infamous Golden Triangle and being home to the Lanna culture, for landmarks such as the picturesque Doi Tung mountain and the beautiful white temple Wat Rong Khun, for tasty Doi Chaang coffee, and last but not least the Singha Park Chiang Rai; one of the largest tea producers in Thailand.

The park spans over almost 13 square kilometers of land and has become a popular tourist destination, ranking on the #7 spot of TripAdvisor’s “Top Things to do” in Chiang Rai.

Available activities include bicycle riding, zipline riding (with panoramic 360-degree views of the tea plantations), as well as rock climbing. The park also features a swan lake, exotic animals such as giraffes, zebras & watusi cows, and flower fields of cosmos and sunn hemp.

There is a pizzeria, an authentic Thai Northern food restaurant, and fields with fresh fruits and vegetable that visitors can pick by hand.

This 14-18 February, Singha Park Chiang Rai will host the International Balloon Fiesta - the biggest balloon festival in ASEAN. There will be participating balloons from over 14 countries, from all around the world.
