A place that many people should know is Phu Chi Fa, which is prominent because it is a mountain that points up to the sky, so it was named that way. And many people who come to visit Chiang Rai have that destination as their destination. But few people know that there is another tourist attraction that is just as beautiful, which is Phu Chi Dao. This place is higher than Phu Chi Dao and offers a 360-degree view. The peak of Phu Chi Dao is a mountain that stands up. There is a long fence path that allows us to turn to face the sunrise and the sea of ​​mist. The advantage of coming to Phu Chi Dao is that we don't have to walk for many kilometers, but we are at a point that is higher than 1,800 meters. The view here is amazing. We will see a sea of ​​mist that is wide and far as the eye can see. There are small and large mountains surrounding it and rising up from the sea of ​​mist. Along with seeing the first light of the sun rising above the sea of ​​fog, it is a picture that is truly beautiful beyond words. When the sunlight shines stronger on the sea of ​​fog, that moment becomes even more beautiful. You could say that this is the place to see the most beautiful sea of ​​fog in Thailand. #tripxplorproject #hkthroughmyeyes #chiangrai #chiangraitravel #phuchidao #naturetherapy #missnature #seaoffog
