Great local shop to enjoy the famous Khao Soi noodle soup, a deliciously rich, creamy, slightly spicy yellow curry dish originating in Northern Thailand. This classic Northern Thai soup will satisfy your craving for a Thai curry dish combined with tender braised meat (chicken, beef are favorites) in a coconut curry broth with boiled and fried noodles.

We believe that visiting Chiang Rai is not about visiting the city center which offers you the scene of a modern Thai city. What it is all about is exploring our beautiful province with its stunning nature, mountain scenery, hill-tribes, caves, coffee & tea plantations, its culture and impressive history. Bambuh Boutique Home-stay offers you tranquility, the chance to experience local Thai lifestyle around us and we make a perfect starting point to explore. Yet, we are only a mere 10 km away from the downtown area with its hustle and bustle.
