泰国之旅 2018 (转机篇) 2018

我们的 #泰国之旅 (转机篇)

united 1

噢,马航把我们放在下班飞机从吉隆坡飞往曼谷。让我们从曼谷去到清迈的转机时间从六个小时缩短到三个小时。最重要的是这两班是不一样的航空公司。简单的说我们的行李箱不是直接从马来西亚吉隆玻送去泰国清迈。现在就看看我们如何在3个小时内办理转机手续,这其中包过1小时在曼谷机场购物。

转机基本只分两种。第一种就是同一间航空公司,但是两个以上目的地。就像上次我们去日本,搭同间航空公司可是中途有转站,这种转站就简单的多。你只要在你起飞办理登机手续时,你的行李箱会直接送去你的目的地。中途转站是不需要拿行李的。

跟随着指定的牌子走。

united 3

行李领取的牌子

united 4

记得,在领取行李箱的荧幕寻找你的航班飞机以节省时间

united 5

其二就想我们这次,购买两间不一样的航空公司。这转机方式就不一样了。下飞机后,请随着行李领取的标志前行。在还没领取你的行李前,一定要先入境柜台在护照上盖印。切记:一定要在机上或还没到入境柜台时填好入境卡(所谓的白卡)会比较方便。

到了行李领取时,不要急着到每个“行李领取旋转”检查你的行李在哪里。因为在曼谷机场有超过10个“行李领取旋转”。你只要在最靠近你的“行李领取”荧幕上寻找你的班机号码或起飞地点及航空公司名字及“行李领取旋转”就可以了。

united 6

再来就是在行李领取转盘领取你的行李

united 7

同样的在荧幕上寻找你的航班号码

united 8

在领取行李后走出机场大厅,过后直接到4楼。到了4楼后,同样的在班机起飞的荧幕上寻找你的班机号码或到达目的地及航空公司名字及柜台办理登机号码去办理登机手续。在办理登机及行李寄舱后,只要沿着国内起飞的标志前行。

在通过移民柜台后,我们可以去购物了。但可别只顾着购物而忘了上机哦。哈哈,开个小玩笑。

Compared to the thumping and thriving nightlife in Bangkok, Chiang Mai at night is sleepy and reserved. Even still, you’ll still find plenty of appropriate places to enjoy a good night out. The Old City is home to the majority of guest houses, coffee shops and bars.

Our #Thailand #ChiangMai Trip (Part 5 – #ThamChiangDaoCaves)

United-2

Before entry the caves is it look like beautiful?

When mention in Caves of adventures, darkness and curiosity will appear in the minds of many of us. For our continue trip, we will go a caves which is natural and hidden in the Chiang Dao.

Chiang Dao lies above the Menam Ping gorge on the green slopes of Doi Chiang Dao Mountain. The name means “City of Stars”, limestone peaks reaching a height of 2,186 m (7,174 ft) make Chiang Dao is the third highest mountain in Thailand.

United-3

United-4

You must follow the worker for the second route

United-5

Is it look like baby elephant?

United-6

Hahaha, For this time it got public transport go to Chiang Dao. From Chiang Mai you can go to Chang Phueak bus station, it has the public bus go to Chiang Dao. It gets two types of public transport; there are air conditioned mini vans and orange buses without air conditioned that make the trip daily with every 30 minutes. You can hire a taxi from one of the travel agencies in Chiang Mai or same as us rent a motorcycle or car. 

From Chiang Mai driving less than 75 kilometers, Chiang Doi is set amid bucolic mountain scenery. First, just head North from Chiang Mai towards Fang. Although on the way, driving on the wide of the asphalt road but the road is curved on the 25km from the distance of Chiang Dai. NOTE: You must be carefully because the road is very curved especially driving the motorcycle plus strong wind. Once you’re alongside the looming cliffs of Chiang Dao Mountain, you’ll see the signs for the Tham Chiang Dao cave. Go on up the road and you’ll see the cave entrance.

United-7

United-8

The first route  is illuminated by electric lights and easy to walk path about 200m.

United-9

United-10

United-11

Wherein there is a unique water flow from inside the cave it is out of the cave

Wherein there is a unique water flow from inside the cave it is out of the cave. This happens for years until the water flow becomes a pond, a habitat of various fish. The Chiang Dao Caves complex itself is supposed to consist of over 100 caves which extend for some 10-12 kilometers inside the mountain range but there are only five main caves which are currently open to the public.

We are delight for adventure in the ancient cave with beautiful stalagmite and the stalactite. There are actually two routes to explore in the cave. Paid 40 Baht for the first route entrance fees is illuminated by electric lights and easy to walk path about 200m. Just walk inside the entrance, we are view the Buddhist statuary and you will find a natural skylight. After pass the Buddhist statuary, continues walk with the colorful lights we are clearly see plenty of stalactites and stalagmites.

United-12

No entry fine 5000 Baht

United-13

A narrow hole

United-14

United-15

United-16

A narrow and tilt stairs

The second route is more adventurous and involved going into the deep dark caverns for a 725m trek. For second route you must hire a guide to take you through the cave as you won’t be able to go on your own and the cave is deep, dark and the caverns are so numerous and easy being lost in caves. You will find the guides and mostly women waiting for you in the entrance of cave. The cost is 200 Baht including hire a guide in a group and renting the old-fashioned kerosene lantern.

The guide can just speak limit English, she communicate with us by pointing out how some of the stalagmites and stalactites look like. Sometimes we have to admire the power of nature. After thousands of years, these stalagmites and stalactites have formed different shapes stun us by their natural beauty. Hey, everyone please guess, we take the photo with stalagmites look like what? That is baby elephant.

Inside of the curve, we also can view the hanging bats in certain areas and bugs too. The guided portion of the cave has a couple of tight squeezes that you may need to get down on your hands and knees for with once or twice and sometime we need to walk down a steep incline. The rocks on the ground can be slippery and you have to be mindful of your steps. It gives us feel like take a small adventure.

Inside the dark portion, the cave gives us feel hollow and cool. The guide will end up in the lit portion of the “first route”. For our opinion although we are first time go to deep cave, It wasn’t very hardest and we can walk in leisure. But for those who are too fat, we don’t know you can pass some narrow cave.

You can enjoy your food nearly of the carve either in the food stall or cafe restaurant. If you lucky, on the way go back to the Chiang Mai, on you left hand side stall have sell 6 coconut just only 100 Baht. Wow, very Cheap Price.

P/S; the caves are treated as sacred places, so wear decent clothes – no short sleeves, no miniskirts or shorts. If you happen to wear clothes inappropriate you can rent a scarf for 20 Baht

How to go:

First choice : You can same as us drive the motorcycle

Second choice:From the Chang Puak Bus Station, orange bus (non air-condition) cost 40 bath and run every 30 minutes. You can get on the bus on the Platform 4 and Chiang Dao is the first stop along a route that will continue to Fang and then end at Taton. So while you take the bus make sure ask the driver. For air conditioned mini vans is 150 bath for one way ticket and the vans leaves every hour. The location of mini vans is just a stone’s throw from the behind the bus station. The selling ticket agency is directly across from a cluster of white vans under the green awnings. All of the public transport would arrive at the orange Chiang Dao Bus Station.

Entry Fees: 40 Baht for the first route 

                   : 200 Baht for the second route including hire a guide in a group and                                  renting the old-fashioned kerosene lantern.

Once parked Pha Chor View Point in front of us, a canopy of forest and covers a big area. There’s a cafe and a brand new and clean washroom nearly here. You can have a drink and eat before you make the round trip. We spend a bit of time to view the beautiful and peaceful panoramic scene. However, don’t make mistakes; this is not our final destination.

We walk alongside the walking trail, the majority of the path is deciduous forest and with the poor sandy soils and rugged terrain of gullies much is still untouched. It is perfectly marked with some data boards you’ll find out about crops/trees within the area. Although it is small paths, but this path is not as hard as our imagined, it can be said that you can easy for walk along this path. Don’t worry about get lost, because there have clear indicator.

We are lucky for view the beautiful butterfly fly in front of us. Take a photo, befriend with them. After walk into a few of stairs, finally we reach the view point of Pha Chor Canyon.

Nature is magic, around the large and primeval forest with rich in green tropical; in front of our eyes are 30 meter high of Pha Chor Pillars. A hundred or a thousand years ago this area was a part of the Ping River until the river changed its flow direction to another path and that made this area lift to high hill. Through erosion the high hill formed into a cliff. The view of the deep and rugged of the cliffs and soil pillars with made a perfect contrast to the blue skies. The high cliff that has a structure likes a huge monolithic wall.
Thank for the forest nursery help me to take the photo with my sister. You can return the way you came or keep going in the loop. For we, walk around the loop, extremely narrow path .This scenery is totally different from our way path. Walk down to another long series of path, takes you on a loop through the eroded rock beds and go back to the car park.
