Mae Hong Son is a very small town located in the North West part of Thailand. The scenic road from Pai to Mae Hong Son is breathtaking. Unfortunately, I could not get any picture as I commuted by bus. If you have a great insurance cover and are courageous enough to drive a motorbike all the way from Pai to Mae Hong Son, you will be stunned!
Mae Hong Son is so small that half a day is enough to get around the city center. The most interesting temples are all located around the lake: Wat Jong Kham and Wat Jong Klang. Wat Phra That Doi Kong Mu is the best sightseeing spot I have seen in Thailand! The view is amazingly breathtaking and getting there at sunset is the most enjoyable way to end the day.
Despite being quite small, the town and its surroundings have a lot to offer. This is such a peaceful place! It is not touristy at all and you get to see what does the lifestyle of Thai people look like.
