Chiang Rai is Thailand 's northern areas province and is bordered by the neighbour states of Laos and Myanma. The ancient city of Chiang Rai was once the capital of the fabled Lanna Kingdom. It was founded in 1262 by King Mengrai as he began to extend his domain southward.
According to legend the city was built on the spot where he found his favorite elephant. He felt that the site along the banks of the Kok River was an auspicious one and thus Chiangrai came into being.
On the banks of Chiangrai 's Mae Kok River, near the ancient capital of the fabled King Mengrai, stands the Rimkok Resort. Five kms. from downtown and the airport. One of the most exotic and fascinating areas of the world, Chiangrai is the Thailand's northernmost province and where the famous boat - trip from Thatorn end.
The resort provides a very large swimming pool and Chiangrai's largest outdoor whirlpool/Jacuzzi as a jogging trail winding over the whole area of the resort. Additional facilities include the elegant Sipsong Panna Dining room, the pleasant Saenwee Coffee Shop, the Heritage Grill and the cosy and intimate Rimkok Lounge. The refreshing Kinnaree Bar, overlooking the Mae Kok River, provides a glorious view of the surrounding countryside. |
