Udon Thani | A treasure trove in northeastern Thailand worth exploring in depth.
In the travel destinations of Thailand, the northeast seems to be less noticed. Until one day, I, who was looking for off-the-beaten-path destinations, came to Udon Thani and felt pleasantly surprised.
When it comes to the development history of Udon Thani, it is closely related to war and has a lot to do with railways. During the Vietnam War, it provided support for the US Air Force base, accelerating the urban development process of Udon Thani. Perhaps due to this sentiment, there are many permanent European and American residents here, most of whom are elderly, and it is likely that this is their favorite retirement destination.
Explore this city carefully, and you will understand its charm. From the high-end shopping centers to the bustling markets, from the huge night markets to the ambiguous bar streets, both Chinese and overseas Chinese have their place here.
Tourists can find everything they want here, while the local pace of life remains unchanged. You won't feel any tourist atmosphere, and you can live comfortably like a Thai for a few days.
Experience sharing:
Arrival transportation:
1. Cars (take a bus from Bangkok or Chiang Rai, or take a business car directly from Lankawi)
2. Plane (Bangkok direct flight is the most convenient)
3. Train (Slow train at Bangkok's Hua Lamphong Station, a special experience traveling through the mountains)
Recommended local must-visit attractions:
1) Night market and bar street across from the train station: a colorful nightlife and an experience not to be missed.
2) Central Plaza Shopping Center: eat, drink, play, and have fun, similar to Wanda Plaza in China, also serving as a temporary transportation hub in front of the entrance.
3) Nong Prajak Public Park: an urban leisure park where you can see Thai people's daily leisure activities. There are restaurants, massage shops, museums, government agencies, etc. nearby. The small yellow ducks in the lake and the sunset are the highlights.
4) Thai-Chinese Cultural Center: showcasing the history of local Chinese (there are over 60,000 Chinese in Udon Thani) and traditional Chinese culture.
5) Banqing National Museum: The cultural relics unearthed from the Banqing archaeological site are mainly pottery, dating back to 4000 BC.
6) Honglian Lake: Once listed as one of the top ten wonders of the world by CNN, the lake is filled with blooming red lotus flowers, making for a magnificent sight while boating (located in Kunpawadi County, with the blooming season from December to February of the following year, with the most spectacular view before 10am).
7) Wat Pa Phu Kon: Beautiful and stunning reclining Buddha, charming night view of the mountain temple.
