Nestled in the heart of Phrae, Khum Chao Luang stands as a magnificent testament to the region's rich history and architectural evolution. Constructed in 1893 for Chao Luang Piriya Theppawong, the last ruler of Phrae, this grand residence showcases stunning period furnishings and intricately engraved wooden doors that reflect both local craftsmanship and Western influences from a time when Phrae thrived as a key player in the teak trade.
Khum Chao Luang is a historical building located in Phrae Province in northern Thailand. Originally built in 1892 by Chao Luang Piriyachai Thepphawong, the last ruler of Phrae, the house served as his residence. The building is an excellent example of a blend of traditional Lanna architecture and European styles, as reflected in its detailed wood carvings and architectural design.​ Khum Chao Luang is a two-story structure built of brick and cement, notable for its 72 windows and doors, as well as the intricate carvings on the gables and cornices. The building was later used as the residence of King Bhumibol and Queen Sirikit during their visit to Phrae in 1958. Today, Khum Chao Luang serves as a museum, open daily from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM, with free admission for visitors. The museum exhibits period furniture, household items, and photographs, providing

A must visit place when coming to Phrae. Experience for yourself how the old ruler of Phrae lived, slept, dined and worked in his huge wooden house right in the city centre. Free entrance but donations can be made. Expect to spend 30-45 minutes here as a tourist to see it all and walk around slowly as the wooden floor is very slippery in some parts of the house

First, it’s a free museum so no worries about reservations. And it’s filled with a lot of historical and unique pieces. It felt like taking a step back in time as I went through the floors and the rooms and I really took my time doing so. I loved the fact that they also had these little document stands and picture boards to elaborate more on whatever piece of artifact you were seeing or room you were in. Absolutely recommend.

The residence of the Phrae royalty in the past. Learn about his and his family way of life here. Free to enter. There is a guide who can speak English to show you around the place. Came to visit during midday and chanced upon the free guided tour (in Thai) at 2pm. Took one and a half hour traveling on the tram to numerous temples. Mainly locals. Tour ended back at Kum Chao Luang, but you can get off at any point. We are free to tip them if we want at the end. Morning tour is at 10am. Luckily I had some knowledge of Thai so it's much enjoyable. Otherwise it may serve only as a transportation among the sites. the friendly guide is able to explain a little in English.

A historical destination that should not be overlooked! This, is the mansion of the last King of Phrae. Its furnished in a manner thats very vintage. There is also a guid, but only really speaks English, so maybe bring someone to translate for you? Lovely place, enjoyed soaking in the history 👌🏻

We made an unscheduled stop here and were we glad we did. No tourists were here when we visited. We took our time browsing the mansion/museum. There’s plenty of parking on the roadside (which is common in Phrae). No entrance fees, clean toilets and best of all…there’s a cold water dispenser. Staff were very friendly and considerate. Well-maintained sight. There are English labels for some of the items so I could understand the history of the mansion.

It was on fine day we went, the building is in good care. There are etiquette in English, but only short explanation. For someone who interest with building/history, perhaps you could read online articles before/after going to this place. Clean toilet available at the backyard garden.

One of the most iconic temples in Phrae! The golden pagoda is absolutely stunning—especially when the sunlight hits it. Peaceful atmosphere, beautiful Lanna-style architecture, and surrounded by lush greenery on a small hill. It’s a great place to walk around, make merit, and take in the views. No entry fee, easy parking, and usually not too crowded. Definitely worth a stop if you’re exploring Northern Thailand or doing a temple tour in Phrae.

The entrance is quite far from the expressway. It takes time to travel from the city quite a bit. But when you get to the temple, it's worth it. temple on top of mountain You have to walk up to the top. The pagoda is very beautiful, the whole pagoda is bright gold.

Wat (Temple) Phra That Phae Cho is an immensely peaceful Buddhist place of worship set atop a hill. Accessed by a (left as you walk up) set of 125 steps flanked by two beautifully tiled Dragon Snakes. The 33m Golden Stupa and the Prayer Hall adjacent to it are both, calmly soothing and meditational. One can also seek blessings from a presiding Buddhist Monk and join in prayer recitals in the latter. Or simply offer candles, incense sticks and a small hand-made conical bouquet of flowers along with their own prayer recitals by dropping a small donation of THB 20/person (£0.50p) into one of several boxes. Don't miss gonging the 33 or so large brass Bells with the Teak batons provided. We then descended on the opposite set of 86 (undecorated) steps back to the street. REMEMBER: This is a Place of Worship. Both genders must dress moderately and be prepared to take-off your footwear at the very top before entering a Sacred place.

Wat Chom Sawan, situated in the picturesque province of Phrae, Thailand, is a must-see attraction known for its exquisite architectural design and rich historical significance. Constructed in 1900, this old temple boasts a unique fusion of Lanna and Burmese architectural styles. Adorned with intricate carvings and golden details at its grand entrance, the temple stands as a testament to the region's cultural heritage.
A Burmese style temple that is so ancient. Interesting architecture and history. There’s a small door by the hall that is for the owners to ride the elephants. You can also see Burmese inscriptions on the pillars. The yellow cloth that they are making, from what I heard is to wrap around the stupa and it takes around a year to complete one. Very interesting. Lucky I came with a guide.

This​ Wat​ gets points for history. It must be preserved for the future Generations. The temple is not the most beautiful Teakwood Temple but it is historic and it is very well-preserved the side of the temple has been a temple for over 1,000 years obviously this beautiful wooden Temple could not be 1,000 years old but it is very old and it is worth a visit

A perfect example of a Burmese style temple easily recognizable by the roof. Sadly, it was undergoing renovations at the time of my visit. The interior is also recognizable as it is more square than a Thai style temple. The Buddha is made of bamboo and gilded. The temple is over 100 years old.

Phae Meuang Phii Forest Park, located near Phrae Town, is a captivating destination that showcases stunning sandstone pillars sculpted by natural erosion over two million years. Visitors can enjoy short walking trails through this unique landscape, which offers a peaceful atmosphere and breathtaking views from the top. The park is easily accessible with ample parking and well-maintained facilities, including clean restrooms and a café.

This is a great historical site with massive, impressive rocks that are fascinating to see. We didn’t spend much time there, but you can go to a viewpoint at the top and possibly take a short hike—though we didn’t have the right shoes for it. It’s a wonderful place to visit, and you likely won’t need more than 1-2 hours to explore it.

Wat Phong Sunan, also known as the Temple of the Tortoise, is a stunning and serene ancient Buddhist temple located in Phrae, Thailand. The temple features intricate design and religious significance, with a big reclining Buddha in the courtyard and a golden chedi. Adjacent to Wat Luang, it is within walking distance of other sites in the old city. The complex includes traditional Viharn and multi-spire buildings, along with numerous statues.
5 stars absolutely given here to this temple. Many things here make it stand out from the rest like the big reclining Buddha and especially the huge golden tortoise behind the temple.

Cute cafe on the corner. Service was very friendly. Prices are fair. Also selling homemade spirits which were very interesting. Taste of the food was average. You won't be impressed but you won't be disappointed either. By noon they had already run out of several major ingredients. Overall it was ok for a breakfast place. Maybe not enough to draw me back again although I would like to try the yogurt someday. Who knows? Maybe I'll come back. Food presentation was good.

I was in there for breakfast this morning and it was very nice and reasonably priced, the coffee was very good overall it was a nice experience. The owner was showing me the local whiskey that they sell it's an interesting place and the staff were very nice. I've been to Phrae a couple of times and didn't know about this place but I will certainly eat there and have a coffee again maybe sample the whiskey next time. I can't comment on the rooms as I didn't stay there but that's a possibility next visit.

The Gingerbread House B&B is a welcoming cozy stay with a wonderful downstairs cafe, friendly staff and family. The family taught us the history of some of the locally made white spirits and after a tasting session we ended up buying four bottles of different types !. As I type this review I am now on stage 10 of a 20 stage cycling journey from Chiang Mai to Phuket and we have stayed at ten different lodgings including high priced ones in some towns. None of them have left us with a feeling of wanting to return to one day except for the Gingerbread B&B which is why we are taking the time out to write this review - great place, great team, great ambiance.

(Translated by Google) 🥰 Nakha Cafe is one of the most beautiful restaurants in Thailand😊 for me. 🤤 The food was delicious. I was so hungry I ate it as soon as it arrived. 😍 The atmosphere is great, the breeze is cool, the seating is comfortable, and the service is good. It's only open on Saturdays and Sundays. If you're in Phrae, I recommend visiting during July-September. The view is beautiful. 😶 I visited during the long Mother's Day holiday in 2025. There was road construction. The road to the restaurant is uphill. Be careful if you're not familiar with the road and don't drive too fast. A Civic sedan can drive up the hill. I saw cars passing by, so there shouldn't be any traffic. I drove a CX5 and drove up the road easily. ⚠️ I recommend visiting during the day, as the roads are unlit at night.

Aroy One Baht is a legendary restaurant in Lampang that offers an authentic dining experience with budget-friendly, high-quality local dishes. The restaurant is housed in a charming two-story wooden building and is popular among locals and tourists alike. Despite its popularity, it maintains a predominantly local clientele, providing an immersive cultural experience. The menu features a variety of delicious dishes to accompany their famous 1 baht porridge, all offered at reasonable prices.
I can’t rate this place enough. I have lived in Thailand twice and this is a brilliant restaurant with some classics and some unique dishes. As a chef I had to snap a few dishes on the menu to attempt to recreate. Thank you for such a wonderful taste experience and to your staff.

Visiting the town with family and needed to go to a restaurant place to eat. We found this place at around 4:40 and got seated. We ate good food which came really fast. But eventually people started coming. I wanna say there were at least 40 people inside the restaurant. Looks like it was a tourist attraction. This place was good.

1. Environment: The restaurant is set in a large two-story wooden house, with old price lists and vintage photos hanging on the walls. The dining tables are cleverly made from repurposed sewing machines, and there are also outdoor seating areas. The surroundings are quiet. If you’re looking for a lively place with a nostalgic atmosphere, this spot is a great choice. 2. Service: You write down your own order, and the food comes out incredibly fast. When I visited, the restaurant was nearly full, but from placing my order to having all the dishes served at once took less than ten minutes. Very efficient service. 3. Taste: The Tom Yum soup was excellent, with authentic flavor and fresh fish that had no unpleasant smell. This was my favorite dish. However, the stir-fried seafood was disappointing. Surprisingly, they used frozen shrimp, and the seasoning was bland — definitely a failed dish. The stir-fried vegetables, on the other hand, had good wok hei (that smoky stir-fry aroma). The portion sizes were generally small, but I can understand this as part of their business strategy to keep prices attractive. Overall, you can think of this place as a fast-casual restaurant with a charming atmosphere and plenty of choices, but it’s best not to set your expectations too high when it comes to flavor.

Exceptional! Located in a large traditional wooden building. This busy restaurant is wonderful. They have an extensive menu but very reasonably priced. Busy, but loads of staff and waiting time just a few minutes - how do they do it. In for 2 evenings and didn't see another foreigner. It was all locals. They certainly know a good thing when they see it. As a solo traveller I particularly liked that they did single servings of things like morning glory. I miss-wrote an item on order form, but they changed it no question. The furniture is basic, but perfectly in keeping. Simple wooden tables, some repurposed eg from treadle sewing machines. Lovely old interior. Don't miss it.

Aroy One Baht is one of the best Khao Tom Gui restaurant in Thailand 😋... for me at least, LOL. Everything is delicious... Everything! And the price is very reasonable as well. We paid around 450 Baht (US$14) for all of these dishes and 3 small Khao Tom which is just 1 Baht/1 small Khao Tom. The only problem is the place located near Kat Kong Ta, Lampang's old market so sometime it's hard to find a parking spot. That's all.

Love their stir-fried eggplant, black mushroom with egg, fish tom yum, and boiled rice. I ordered 3 bowls of boiled rice just to finish with all the food. Highly recommended for everyone if you come to Lampang.

Night market
The Saturday Night Market is a must-visit event in Thailand, taking place only on Saturday evenings. It's a traditional Thai festival with a carnival-like atmosphere, featuring an array of food, desserts, beverages, snacks, and various clothing shops along several streets. The market offers an authentic Thai experience with great food and drinks starting from 3 pm until about 9 pm. Visitors can enjoy the lively atmosphere and find fresh produce as well as unique gifts while strolling through this vibrant local market.
I have been using this market since it opened because my relatives were the founders. They intended this market to be the starting point of a strong cultural community, local products, and local student art performances. To tourists who are still hesitant to visit Phrae Province, give Phrae Province a chance, give “Gad Gong-gao” a chance to give you happiness on your holiday.

The market is very big it must be 1km long but it's well worth a visit. There is some great food stalls there. There's also a few bars and restaurants you can visit, but go early as they sell out of food very quickly and it closes at about 9 pm.

It is the best night market I have visited in Thailand! Friendly, welcoming and feels very community centered. All the food appeared fresh and I tried as many as I could. Highly recommend visiting if around on the weekend.

What a wonderful night market. We had the best time. We tried new food strolling through the market on Christmas Eve. Great selection of food and great selection of goods for sale. So far - this is the best night market we have been to in Thailand. This market only happens on Saturday evenings. The event is several streets. Go hungry!
