Lampang

Lampang Province is a charming province in northern Thailand, often referred to as "Mueang Rot Ma" (City of Horse Carriages) due to its iconic horse-drawn carriages that still operate today. It's a city steeped in Lanna culture and history, offering a more relaxed and authentic Northern Thai experience compared to its bustling neighbors. Lampang is also renowned for its high-quality ceramics, traditional textiles, and the revered Wat Phra That Lampang Luang.

Interesting tourist attractions when visiting Lampang include:

• Wat Phra That Lampang Luang: Considered one of the most beautiful and complete wooden temples in Northern Thailand, dating back to the 15th century. It houses revered relics and features intricate Lanna architecture and ancient murals.
• Thai Elephant Conservation Center (TECC): Home to Thailand's only elephant hospital, this center offers educational programs, elephant shows, and opportunities to learn about elephant conservation. Visitors can also experience elephant riding.
• Wat Phra Kaeo Don Tao Suchadaram: An important royal temple that once housed the Emerald Buddha. It features a mix of Lanna and Burmese architectural styles.

It is easily accessible via Lampang Airport (LPT) with direct flights from Bangkok (approximately 1 hour 10 minutes), or by train and bus from Bangkok (overnight options available, taking 8-12 hours). Horse carriages, bicycles, and local songthaews are popular ways to get around the city.
