After a two-hour drive from Chiang Rai International Airport, we arrive at Doi Tung in the late afternoon, the day before the opening ceremony of the Colours of Doi Tung Festival. “Doi Tung is known for organising events focusing on food, agriculture, handcrafts and social development and the Doi Tung Lifestyle shops sell woven fabric, saa paper works and ceramics. “The festival grows more popular every year and now when tourists come to Chiang Rai, they come up to Doi Tung,” he adds. I end my visit with a stroll along with 300-metre Doi Tung Treetop Walk. IF YOU GO- The Colours of Doi Tung Festival takes place every weekend until January 28 from 8am to 6pm.
