Travel Destinations - Mae Hong Son Province
Nestled in a deep valley hemmed
in by high mountain ranges, Mae Hong Son has long been isolated
from the outside world. Virtually covered with mist throughout
the year, the name refers to the fact that is terrain is highly
suitable for the training of elephants.
Former governors of Chiang Mai used to organize the rounding
up of wild elephants which were then trained before being
sent to the capital for work. Today, Mae Hong Son is one of
the “dream destination” for visitors who are attracted by
its cultural and natural wonders.
