From there we go to the Golden Triangle, a land where Thailand, Burma and Laos meet, a drug manufacturing area during the Vietnam War that used to be full of poppy cultures. From there we go all the way to the eastern part of the country to visit two of the most beautiful Khmer temples outside Cambodia, Phanom Rung and Phimai and further to one of the beautiful islands of Thailand Koh Sa Met. We ended up in the floating markets of Rachaburi Province and at the largest stupa in the entire country at Nankon Pathom. The Road to Chiang Mai: Hill Tribes, Poppy Culture and Ancient Khmers (Copyright _ 2002 - 47 minutes) covers Chiang Mai, The Golden Triangle, Eastern Thailand.

nostalgia
I purchased this video for the scenery, because I know the area and miss it. The scenery never disappoints, narrative and comment is pedestrian.
