There's no better way to understand a destination than to literally take a big bite out of it! You're invited to discover the culture, history and personality of Chiang Rai Province by sampling some of its top food and drink.

Do you love vietnamese coriander? How about culantro? Whether you're wild about them or not, they are two traditional ingredients often found in dishes here.

Looking for a traditional Po eating experience? There are some specialty dishes to watch out for, such as khao kan chin (steamed pork blood and rice) and khanom chin nam ngiao (rice with pork blood sauce).

Try to blend in with your hosts by taking the time to learn a handful of expressions in the local tongue. To start with, try to pronounce 'Yin dee têe dâi róo jàk'. This means 'pleased to meet you'. Perhaps you'll find 'Raa-dtree sà-wàt' is a bit easier to roll off the tongue? It means 'good night'.

Every year on the 5th of December, Birthday of King Phumiphon occupies an important place in the hearts of the locals. It offers a unique opportunity to learn about the country's past and have a little fun while you're at it!

Before you say your final "Laa gòn ná" to Po, check your pockets for any stray change that you can spend on last-minute mementos.

If you're travelling by plane, it's a wise idea to map out your route to the terminal in advance. From the middle of Po, you'll need to travel some 210 kilometres southwest to Chiang Mai International Airport (CNX), the closest airport.
