The Best Attractions In Phu Wiang

Welcome to the Vibrant and Versatile City of Khon Khaen!

Located in its namesake province, the colourful city of Khon Kaen is an attractive tourist destination with so much to recommend it, whether you are interested in art, culture or ancient history.

Once a historic hub of silk production and now a thriving university town, Khon Kaen is also known for its many beautiful temples, such as the royal temple of Wat Phra Mahathat Kaen Makhon, also known as the 9-storey stupa. This regal structure features stunning carvings and exquisite murals, and when you ascend to the 9th storey you will find relics of Lord Buddha and be dazzled by breathtaking views of the city.

However Khon Kaen’s allure doesn’t just lie in its beautiful historic temples. Families visiting the city are sure to enjoy a trip to Phu Wiang Dinosaur Museum, where you can get up close and personal to these awe-inspiring prehistoric monsters and learn more about how they lived and how their bones were discovered millions of years later. Dino-mad kids are guaranteed to love this amazing attraction!

Another unmissable experience is a visit to Khon Kaen’s King Cobra Village, where all of the inhabitants – even the kids – interact with snakes on a daily basis, even ‘boxing’ with cobras to entertain and enthrall visitors.

Back in the city, there are plenty of other things to see and enjoy, from admiring colourful artworks in the city’s art galleries and shopping for beautiful souvenirs to take back for friends and family.

Khon Kaen also boasts a thriving nightlife, so why not end a fun-filled day of sightseeing with a tasty al fresco meal and some live music, the perfect end to a perfect day in this vibrant northern Thai city!

Khon Khaen Dinosaur

Long before there were humans here in Isaan, this area was ruled by dinosaurs. Many fossils and dinosaur artifacts have been found here, and ever since then Thailand’s had major dinosaur fever. That’s why there are many tourist attractions around Khon Kaen devoted to dinosaurs. We’re going to take you to around!

This is Phu Wiang dinosaur museum, around 15 minutes outside of Khon Kaen. It’s Thailand’s first dinosaur museum, and it’s filled with artifacts and dinosaur fossils found in the Isaan area. It’s home to the first dinosaur discovery in Thailand, a four-legged plant eating dinosaur with a long neck and a tail called a sauropod. He was found by accident in 1976. Tourists can come here to learn about fossils like this one and the process of fossil conservation.

From Thailand’s first dinosaur museum we are here, at Thailand’s first dinosaur excavation site. This is Phu Wiang National Park. This is the home of a numerous amount of paleontological sites where fossils have been found. It’s one of the world’s largest dinosaur graveyards.

Today you can come to Phu Wiang National Park and go trekking to excavation sites like this one. This is where a partial skeleton of one of T-rex’s early ancestors. Some say that if you get off the beaten track here in Phu Wiang, you can even find dinosaur footprints. From the viewpoint, you can see all of the national park from a fantastic perspective.

On the road to Phu Wiang National Park is the Si Wiang Dinosaur Park, around 70 kilometers outside of Khon Kaen. This museum is a great introduction to learning about dinosaurs, with models of various species that can make sounds and move. Don’t be scared, even though they may seem quite real.

As you can see, Khon Kaen is a wonderful place to learn about pre-historic times… and you’ll even get to see the real places where dinosaur history was made here. Don’t miss out on the Phu Wiang dinosaur museum, Phu Wiang national park and Si Wiang dinosaur park. It’s sure to be a lot of fun!

Dinosaur Daytrip tour - Northeast Thailand (Isan)

Khon Kaen province is famous for dinosaurs and this tour travels to the heart of dinosaur country in the Phu Wiang mountains where several important paleontological discoveries have been made, including two previously unknown species: Phuwiangosaurus sirindhornae, a 15-meter (49 feet) long sauropod named after Thailand's beloved princess, and Siamotyrannus isanensis, an ancestor of Tyrannosaurs Rex named after Thailand and Isan. This is what accounts for the abundance of dinosaur sculptures in Khon Kaen city. We'll visit the dinosaur museum, stop for photo-ops with life-sized concrete statues, and see some actual fossils still stuck in the bedrock. But, even without the dinosaurs as a draw, Wiang Kao district is a wonderful place to visit. It's a very traditional region with few modern concrete houses and no 7-11s; and once you turn off the short main road you may feel you've taken a small step back in time. Plus the microclimate of the curious ring-shaped mountain range, which has just a single pass leading to its interior, makes the area highly productive, so you'll see lots of fruits and flowers being grown. We'll visit villages where women weave banners to hang in temples and make handbags from recycled coffee wrappers. We'll also climb a soaring tower to take in the awesome 360-degree view of the mountains. The combination of attractions makes this a great tour for both kids and adults.

We also have a two-day Dinosaurs & Dragon Fruits version of this tour.

10 Best Things to Do in Chiang Mai

10 Best Things to Do in Chiang Mai


Doi Suthep
Gleaming like a northern star from the heights of Doi Suthep (the regal mountain overlooking the city from the northwest) is Wat Phra That Doi Suthep. It is one of the most historically and spiritually significant places in Thailand and is an impressive embodiment of the Lanna culture, with its origins dating back almost 700 years.

Chiang Mai Zoo
Covering 200 acres of land in the foothills of Doi Suthep and providing excellent views of the city in addition to fascinating wildlife exhibits, Chiang Mai Zoo is certainly worth a visit. Nearly 400 species of animal are kept here, including the two 'cultural ambassador' or pandas from China.

Chiang Mai Night Safari
Modeled after a similar attraction in Singapore, Chiang Mai Night Safari features three animal zones – Savanna Safari, Predator Prowl, Jaguar Trail – which you can tour via an open-sided tram or on foot. Enjoy a range of activities designed to keep you entertained throughout your visit, from hand-feeding wild animals and petting tiger cubs to a laser light show and ‘dancing’ fountain.


Wat Chedi Luang
Built sometime between 1385 and 1402, during the reign of King Saen Muang Ma, 7th ruler of the Mengrai dynasty, Wat Chedi Luang's massive chedi (pagoda) is a distinctive feature of the Chiang Mai skyline. At its peak, the chedi measured 60 metres across at the square base and 80 metres tall and was once the home of the Emerald Buddha, Thailand's most sacred religious relic.

Wiang Kum Kam the Underground Ancient City
Located in attractive countryside about five kilometres south of Chiang Mai along the Ping River, Wiang Kum Kam is an ancient city dating back to the eighth-century Haripunchai Kingdom. Expect to see many interesting items and structures such as stone tablets with Mon inscriptions, Buddhist sculptures and architecture, earthenware and pottery.


Mae Sa Elephant Camp
Having secured their names in the Guinness World Record, the elephants at the Mae Sa Elephant Camp are no ordinary beasts. Apart from going about their daily routine of bathing, eating, sleeping and just being domesticated elephants, these extremely intelligent animals have been trained to paint, play football, dance and perform a string of talent shows that will change the way you think about Thai elephants.

Doi Inthanon National Park
Doi Inthanon, the highest peak in Thailand, rises 2,565 metres above sea level. Known as a sanctuary for a wide range of animal species and perhaps the best place in Thailand for bird-watching, the park has approximately 362 different species, many of which are not found anywhere else in Thailand. Doi Inthanon is a popular destination, not only for its natural beauty, but also for its historical significance.


Doi Pui Tribal Village and National Park
Doi Pui, at 1,685metres above sea level, is the highest peak in the Doi Suthep-Pui National Park. It is famous for its beautiful waterfalls which are easily reached from the main road. But one of the hottest attractions for Doi Pui must be Hmong Tribal Village situated less than five kilometres from the famous Wat Phra That Doi Suthep.




Karen Long Neck Tribe & Chiang Dao Cave
At Chiang Dao cave, the caverns stretch many kilometres into the mountain yet only a small part of the complex is possible to explore. Two of the caves, Tham Phra Nawn and Tham Seua Dao, are illuminated by electric lights, but the upper caves are pitch-black and requires a local lantern-carrying guides to lead the way.

Bo Sang Handicraft Village
The handcrafting of umbrellas and parasols in Bo Sang Village is known throughout the country and even abroad – so much so that the umbrella has become one of the symbols of Chiang Mai. Here, you'll find plenty of hand-painted umbrellas, tiny cocktail umbrellas, large parasols for gardens or patios and other handmade products – all made from sa paper in various designs and at reasonable prices.
