Highlight

01 : Step into the heritage of Ban Nong Bua, a Thai Lue community with roots in Xishuangbanna more than 200 years ago. Savor authentic dishes such as Khai Pam, spicy chicken dip with Nam Prik Ma-Kwaen, and chicken curry—prepared with seasonal organic produce and crafted by community chefs. 

02 : Journey through Nan’s forested hills to Saengthong Terrace, a restaurant nestled within Saeng Thong Resort in Chiang Klang. Encircled by rice fields and mountain views, it offers a serene setting to enjoy regional dishes.

03 : Unwind at Patamma Hideaway Resort, an eco-luxury retreat set within 500 acres of forest. Its design, crafted with local wood, bamboo, and rammed earth, blends harmoniously with nature while offering refined comfort. Winner of Hotel Architecture – Thailand by the Asia Pacific Property Awards, the resort embodies sustainability, cultural respect, and timeless architectural elegance.

04 : Travel back in time at Hong Chao Fong Kham, a nearly 200-year-old teak mansion built in classic Lanna style. This “living museum” preserves Nan’s noble heritage and textile legacy, offering hands-on weaving of the famed Nam Lai pattern with cotton and natural dyes.

Join a community workshop and learn to prepare “Khai Ngam Ngon”, Nan’s signature “beautiful curved egg.” Once a rare aristocratic recipe, this delicate dish embodies the artistry, elegance, and cultural pride at the heart of Nan’s culinary heritage.
