Experience the Way of Life in Chiang Saen

If you’re looking for an experience you can’t get anywhere else, please come to join us for Buddha Lent Day (aka Khao Pansa) in Chiang Saen. This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity will have you leaving refreshed and re-energized. A perfect way to balance your energy and see Thailand’s spiritual side.

 

At Chiang Saen, you can live a day in the life of the locals. Take in their culture, and come back feeling refreshed. Buddha Lent Day is waiting for you!

 

The Buddhist Lent Day Legend

In the past, monks’ constant travel destroyed rainy-season crops. Therefore, Buddha forbade monks from leaving their temples during the rainy season. Unless a monk has an urgent business, they can depart for only seven nights.

 

What do locals Do on Buddhist Lent Day?

During Buddhist Lent, people would visit temples to earn merit, listen to sermons, and purify their thoughts. In addition, the Khao Pansa candle festival, which occurs every year at the beginning of the Buddhist Lent in late July, will be celebrated. In 2022, the Khao Pansa Candle Festival will be on July 14.

 

Enjoy the Candle Festival with a Locals

Chiang Saen’s traditional candle festival, or Khao Pansa, reflects the master craftsmen’s technique of candle carving as part of this cultural event. Carved candles depicting religious stories and detailed sculptures from the fairy tales will be presented on the candle display. Enjoy the large, hand-carved, beeswax candles that fill the air with the scents of flowers and incense as the procession of floats passes by at a slow pace around the small town.

 

Take Your Place in the Legend this Khao Pansa Candle Festival

You won’t want to miss the legend of the Khao Pansa Candle Festival. Stay at Athita and get close to the culture and tradition. Breathe in the rich history and nature while you are here.

Embrace Chiang Saen’s Cultural Uniqueness
Wandering around the town to discover natural and architectural features demonstrating the Chiang Saen people’s connection to nature’s wisdom.

Traveling to a secret land in northern Thailand, such as Chiang Saen, is one of life’s most exciting adventures. Chiang Saen is a great place to visit if you want to broaden your horizons and learn more about the northern heritage, culture, and architecture.

Visit the Ancient and Sacred Temple at Wat Pa Sak Chiang Saen
Wat Pa Sak Chiang Saen was established during Phra Phaya Saen Phu in 1930. This famous temple was erected to house artifacts with 300 teak trees planted around it. Architecture in the Dvaravati era has been a blend of art and architecture. Chinese art was a source of inspiration for several of the stucco designs.

Taste the Best Glutinous Rice in Thailand
Khao Niew Khiaw Ngoo Glutinous Rice is a local grain grown in the area historically known as Chiang Saen plains. The agriculture area covers Mae Chan, Chiang Saen, Mae Sai, Mae Fah Luang, and Doi Luang in the present day. This is where the country’s best glutinous rice is farmed. Because of sufficient water and hot springs in Pa Tung, minerals have accumulated in the watershed for millions of years.

Explore Hand-woven silk at Ban San That
Visit the hand-woven fabric tradition of “Ban San That,” the village in Chiang Saen that cultivates mulberries from seed to harvest. They also invited Chalermchai Kositpipat, a notable Thai artist, to create gorgeous pattern designs. They called this pattern “With Love” in honor of their loved ones.

Stay with us at Athita, and you’ll have a memorable experience. Just a few minutes of easy access to the historic city of Chiang Saen and the opportunity to discover Northern Thailand’s rich culture and architecture. The sooner you make your reservation, the better!
