The Royal Projects of Chiang Mai

Visiting Chiang Mai’s many royal projects is an amazing way to ensure that generations to come support Thailand’s royal heritage, beliefs and culture.

HM the late King Bhumibol Adulyadej, Rama 9, left the most incredible legacy to his people. He initiated numerous projects designed to benefit the land and people. Thailand has an incredibly versatile farming background, which is something we should continue to support and instill in generations to come from all around the world. The royal projects aid over 38 sites across Thailand, and are a really fun and exciting way to help children reconnect with nature.

Chiang Mai alone is home to many projects, many of which were meant to phase out the production of opium in the north of Thailand by creating better and more sustainable livelihoods for many hilltribe people. Here’s a sample of what to see when you visit.

The Royal Agricultural Station Angkhang (pictured above)
Misty hills, bike riding, horse riding and so much more, this is a winter wonderland in Thai terms. Great for some outdoor adventuring as well as learning about the local hill tribes and how they farm.
