Ancient Kingdom Awaits

Explore Nan Province's timeless temples, breathtaking mountain landscapes, and authentic Thai culture preserved for centuries away from tourist crowds.

Tucked away in Thailand's northeastern border with Laos, Nan Province remains one of the country's best-preserved secrets. This former independent kingdom offers an authentic Thai experience untouched by mass tourism.

Begin in charming Nan City, where wooden houses and ancient temples create a relaxed atmosphere. Don't miss Wat Phumin with its distinctive cruciform architecture and stunning Lanna-style murals, including the famous "Whisper of Love" scene depicting traditional courtship.

The surrounding countryside reveals pristine mountains and forests covering 40% of the province. Doi Phu Kha National Park showcases rare flora like the Chomphu Phu Kha tree, found nowhere else on earth, while winter brings spectacular Thai sakura blooms.

What makes Nan truly special is its cultural tapestry woven from diverse hill tribes—Lua, H'mong, Mien, and Thai Lue—each preserving unique traditions and crafts. In villages like Ban Nong Bua, visitors can observe traditional weaving and purchase authentic textiles directly from artisans.

Culinary adventurers will delight in northern Thai specialties with local twists, while seasonal festivals like the vibrant Nan Boat Races offer glimpses into centuries-old traditions.

For travellers seeking Thailand beyond the tourist trail, Nan Province delivers pristine nature, living culture, and genuine local connections.
