MULTI ETHNIC VILLAGE NEAR CHIANG MAI...
The multi-ethnic village of Tong Luang near Chiang Mai is worth visiting.
Some would say it's a bit of an artificial exposure but that's not really true.
In Thailand many ethnic groups coexist, mostly from Burma and some from China.
It includes the tribes of the Paralang, Kayan, Karen, Lahu, Mu Sir, Hmong, Akha or Lisu.
All have their specificities and live their customs in their own way.

Their life in the mountains is difficult and today some prefer to live "down " in a village where they find a little comfort and financial security by being able to sell the product of their crafts more easily.
You will see here these different ethnic groups and even if it is different from the isolated villages and difficult to reach, you will have a great time with meetings.
