Chiang Mai and The Golden Triangle

A symbolic doorway to the golden triangle.

At the bottom is Thailand, to the left is Burma/Myanmar, to the right is Laos, and in the far distance in the center is China.

On Laotian soil, you can buy Snake Whiskey.  All of the bottles have a cobra and snips of spices.  When you drink this fine whiskey, it tastes like formaldehyde and ginger with an after taste of dirt.

This boat and statue were given by the Thai people to celebrate the Queens birthday.

Another Buddhist Temple (I know my site is full of temples).
