Chiang Mai (Thailand) – The cultural heart of northern Thailand with over 300 temples, night bazaars, elephant sanctuaries, and Lanna heritage.
Together, they create one of Southeast Asia’s most rewarding multi-country journeys — perfect for travelers seeking breathtaking scenery, authentic cultural immersion, and seamless luxury Vietnam Travel combined with unforgettable Laos Travel and Thailand Tours.

Your floating sanctuary awaits on a Legend Travel Group cruise (Source: Internet)Halong Bay: Remove shoes before boarding traditional junks; avoid pointing feet at Buddha images on cruises.
Luang Prabang: Dress modestly (shoulders & knees covered) when visiting temples; observe silently during morning alms-giving (06:00 daily); never touch a monk’s robes.
Chiang Mai: Always wai (palms together) when greeting; remove shoes before entering temple buildings or someone’s home; speak softly inside temple grounds.
Respecting these traditions creates deeper connections and earns warm smiles everywhere you go.
