Loei, Thailand the Top Things To Do
Bordered by the mighty Mekhong River and mist-shrouded mountains, Loei has long been popular with Thai tourists, but still receives comparatively few international travelers. However, with all that the province has to offer, the secret may soon be out.
When visiting Loei, many people choose to head straight to Chiang Khan, famed for its laid-back charm and kitsch walking street. It is also a good base from which to explore nearby natural attractions, including un-spoilt national parks with their cool climates, lush pine forests and unique flora and fauna.
For those of you who don’t mind an early start, a visit to Phu Thok, which means isolated mountain, is a must-do whilst in Loei. Famed for its spectacular sunrises and ‘sea of fog’ views, this natural phenomenon is best viewed during winter months though good views are to be had all year-round. The area is also home to Wat Phu Thok; known locally as ‘stairways to heaven’, a popular spot for meditation in addition to offering striking views over the surrounding countryside.
For three days of the year the sleepy town of Dan Sai plays host to one of the most colourful and some would say spookiest festivals of its kind; Phi Ta Khon, or the ‘Ghost’ festival. Accompanied by raucous music and dancing, young men dressed as ghosts wearing huge colorful masks parade through the streets to worship spirits and ask for plentiful rain for the year ahead.
The annual event takes place between March and July, the exact dates being determined by the town’s spiritual mediums. If you can’t make the festival but are still interested in learning more, pay a visit to the Dansai Folk Museum, which provides information on the origins and significance of the Phi Ta Khon festival. At weekends you can also see demonstrations of how the festival masks are made.
With its unique climate, cultures and traditions, stunning natural attractions and colouful festivals, Loei is a province just waiting to be explored and is an up and coming ecotourism destination not to be missed, so come along and explore the wisdom of the mountains for yourself.

Fahrt durch die Berglandschaft in Loei
Wenn ihr die Berglandschaft in der Gegend von Loei von ihrer schönsten Seite kennen lernen möchtet, empfehle ich euch einmal Richtung Phu Ruea zu fahren.
Ihr werdet herrliche Berge und kleine dicht bewaldete Hügel vorfinden. Leider wurde in letzter Zeit viel Raubbau mit dem Abholzen der Bäume betrieben und es kommt neuerdings auch häufiger zu Brandrodungen, wie es in Chiang Mai seit Jahren der Fall ist.
Mietet euch ein Motorrad oder ein Auto und geniest die Fahrt durch eines der schönsten Naturschutzgebiete in Thailand. Es gibt ein landwirtschaftliches Forschungszentrum in dem mit Pflanzen experimentiert wird und in dem Pflanzen angezogen werden um sie an die zahlreichen inländischen Touristen zu verkaufen.
In dem Nationalpark gibt es noch freilebende Tiger und wilde Elefanten. Seit vorsichtig und geht nicht zu Fuß ohne Führer los. Drei Mitarbeiter des Naturschutzgebietes kamen innerhalb kurzer Zeit durch Elefanten ums Leben. Zu besichtigen gibt es noch zahlreiche Tempel und Wasserfälle.
