About
The highlights of this famous attraction are winter plants and flowers that grow abundantly all year long. Doi Ang Khang is a part of Dan Lao mountain range along the border of Myanmar and maintains year round cool temperatures. Mountain mists can be always seen here and the place is perfect for winter plants. Apart from the first Royal Project of Winter Plant Research Station, which was founded in 1969, you can also see and learn about the interesting cultures of hill tribe people. In the late winter in Doi Ang Khang, the changing colors of the forest lends the most gorgeous view with the exquisite wild Himalayan cherry blossoms or Thai sakura that bloom richly on the side of the road. Strawberry farms offer a welcome for tourists to try fresh picked fruit. For nature and bird lovers, Doi Ang Khang also has a nature trail which passes through a small forest and village farms abundant with local and migrating birds. The trail starts not far behind Mae Poe Water Source Management Department of Doi Ang Khang Agricultural Station.
