Sop Ruak (Golden Triangle) Away from the Chiang Saen District Office along the 9 km along the Mekong River, which is where the land of the 3 countries meet, namely Thailand, Myanmar, Laos, with the Ruak River separating the boundary between Thailand and Myanmar. And the Mekong River separating the boundary between Thailand and Laos.

 

Sop Ruak (Golden Triangle) Once this was a very large opium farm. But now there is no opium fields anymore Leaving only a quiet view of the rivers and boundaries of 3 countries only.

 

Boat rental services are available for traveling to view the Golden Triangle. It takes 20 minutes and can also rent a boat from Sop Ruak to Chiang Saen and Chiang Khong. Takes about 40 minutes and 1 and a half hours respectively.
