OVER VIEW

Most of the time, the region of Lampang is forgotten by individual tourists. Not because it lacks interesting places to visit… Interesting places between Sukhothai and Chiangmai are numerous, but it is the public transportation that rallies interesting sites which lacks the most.

NSTRAVEL has decided to open this route and make possible to any one to discover the region on individual base and without depending on public transportation.

It is now possible to admire the superb ‘Wat Phrathat Lampang Luang’… A unique masterpiece of Lanna style… Many tourists fond of elephants can also discover the unique ‘Elephants Conservatory’ or admire the superb Chinese architecture of the bell tower and library of Wat Haripunchai in Lamphun. Finally one can stop at the forgotten historical park of Si-Sachanalai and admire some superb ruins.

This mini tour between Chiangmai & Sukhothai is a ‘2 days - 1 night’ little package operating everyday. It is a real ‘missing link between the Mountains and the Central Plain.
