The ancient city of Chiang Rai in the northest province of the same name was established in 1262 by King Mengrai , founder of Lanna Kingdom .The Mae Sai River further north of Chiang Rai and at the border town of Mae Sai,serves as a natural boundary between Myanmar and Thailand . Although Chiang Rai has
a history dating back to more than 750 years , extensive structural and cultural changes has left it nearly bereft of ancient ruins.
The Mae Kok River is a feature of Chiang Rai that must be experienced . It runs from Thaton in northern Chiang- Mai to Chiang Rai city and then on to meet with The Mekong River at Chiang Khong. The Mae Kok runs through the valley south of Doi Mae Salong , to the Myanmar border on the far north , sprawling mountains cover the land and there are many smaller roads leading into less settled areas between Mae Chan and Mae Sai. |
