What travelers say:
Ban Rak Thai is a stunningly charming village hidden away in the mountains. It’s a really unique place to experience. There isn’t anywhere in Thailand that I could compare it with. There are tea plantations, traditional Chinese-styled buildings, an artificial lake where morning fog forms, the entire town is decorated with red illuminating Chinese lanterns and the food is not like anything else you’ll find in Thailand.

Ban Rak Thai Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
A small village on the border between Thailand and Myanmar. The Thai people call it rakthai (Latai). Many of the village names here are the remnants of the famous party and army of the country. Many of them can speak Chinese. They see that Chinese tourists are very enthusiastic. If you are interested, you can chat with them and listen to them tell some little-known histories and stories. The archway at the entrance of the village is written with three Chinese characters "Miwo Village". At sunrise every day, there is a faint mist on the lake beside the village. You can make a pot of tea by the lake, listen to Teng Lijun's old songs, and chat with the villagers. There is a bus from Mae Hong Son to here every day, but it is not too time-consuming. It is more convenient to rent a car by yourself.

Ban Rak ThaiA somewhat interesting village . It is remote and getting there takes a while on a windy road. There are many shops selling Chinese goods and food items. This place is definitely worth a detour. I'm really amazed that they managed to turn such a small pond/lake into a tourist attraction and build so many resorts there. It's possible to walk all the way round the pond/lake in a couple of hours. The best time on the lake is definitely as the sun rises and the mists form above it. #thailand #thailandtravelMiss Thai27

The most beautiful village in ThailandLeewine resort in Ban Rak Thai village, Mae Hong Son province Thailand 🇹🇭 Cottage type guesthouses – made from mud and influenced by Chinese culture, located right at the middle of hill-side tea plantations. Ban Rak Thai has a beautiful landscape of lush green tea plantations on the slope of hills. Take a walk around the tea garden on the hills surrounding the village and learn about growing and processing tea products. A tranquil getaway — the sleeping village is one of the best places to spend a day doing nothing. Absolutely nothing #village #banrakthai #maehongsonJum_Thitapa37
Amazing Route around Chiang Mai!This route was done in 1 day! However, it gets really tiring especially with the mountainous ride. Take a sip of tea and a bowl of hot soup noodles in Pang Mahba, dangling your feet off the air! The food was really good too. Supposedly if you are travelling in a group, it would be great to break the itinerary into a few days, stay overnight in Ban Rak Thai, beautiful Yunan village at the border of Myanmar/China!Traveluster3
Chinese Village in ThailandBan Rak Thai, a quaint little village near to Myanmar-Thai border. Off the main road of 14km of windy, twisty, up and down like a roller coaster ride but it’s all worth it. Did not feel like in Thailand. we have been sent to another era. There is a Chinese cafe and a restaurant overlooking a lake. You can take a boat ride around the lake. There are also many accommodations on the hill but I was told need to book several months in advance.AlvinOng10
Oriental Gem in a hidden Thailand valleyThe city name "Ban Rak Thai" is directly translated to "I love Thailand" which was hidden in a valley of Mae Hon Son province in Thailand. The city is well hidden in lush green bamboo and vegetables farm. It's recommended to access via motorbike or car if you have good skills to make it through narrow and steep corners. It's about an hour away from the capital city of Mae Hon Son.Ras Angela6

Ban Rak ThaiBan Rak Thai adalah sebuah perkampungan tanah tinggi kecil yang terletak di wilayah Mae Hong Son, Utara Thailand. Ia terletak di lembah yang dikelilingi oleh bukit dan ladang teh. Oleh kerana lokasinya yang terpencil, kampung ini masih kurang dikenali oleh pelancong. Dari segi jarak, tempat ini adalah kira-kira 40KM dari bandar Mae Hong Son dan 250KM dari Chiang Mai. Ia juga sangat dekat dengan sempadan Myanmar (kurang daripada 1km). #ykk2022 #travel #banrakthai #thailand #tripblazers #awesomepic #staycation #scenic #amazingKian Kiang7

Traditional Scenic Thai Chinese VillageMae Hong Son is located up north of changi mai where there is a little village called Ban Rak Thai located right at the border of Myanmar(Burma). Getting here alone is almost impossible and I do recommend going by tour normally a small day tour group picking you up at Mae Hong Son Town. This town is a quiet peaceful town surrounding the Khuean Nai Mok Reservior, making this a very beautiful photoshot backdrop for many! And normally people come this town for 2 things, the view and the many tea tasting plantation. Not many people are aware of such beauty in Thailand, so maybe step out of your comfort zone and travel somewhere out of the norm for once. Oh P.S, I finally also able to get to use my drone without any restrictions. Muahhahaah!! #fallingforfall #thailand #changmai #teaplantations #view #scenic #breathtakingKinnie Kong11

Ban Rak Thai, Mae Hong Son - Thailand: The peaceful village surrounded by mountains and tea planation with the lake view in front. Good timing to visit is from Nov - Jan which is a winter time in Thailand. However, it takes quite a long drive to get there.D34***9318

Hidden gem in North ThailandBan Rak Thai is a small highland village nestled in the lush backcountry of Mae Hong Son province in Northern Thailand. It is set in a valley surrounded by hills and tea plantations on the edge of a reservoir. This sleepy village is famous for its breathtaking views and tea cultivation.My Soul

Immersed in a distinguished culture in Thai#2024wish i have been in Thailand more than 10 times but this is my first time to the North West of Thailand to discover & enjoy a very different culture than a typical Thai one. Find peace & relaxation here. Day and night views are completely different so highly recommend a stay over. Wake up early in the morning to enjoy a foggy and smoky lake view like in a heaven_TS***wx
Beautiful morning at hidden village in Thailand 🧡🌄📍 บ้านรักไทย Ban Rak Thai, a small highland village nestled in the lush backcountry of Mae Hong Son province in Northern Thailand. It is set in a valley surrounded by hills and tea plantations on the edge of a reservoir, famous for its breathtaking views and tea cultivation. Plus if its winter, oh you cannot forget the feel of cool wind on your face after a long hot year in Thailand. Winters are undoubtedly the best time to visit Ban Rak Thai. The temperature drops to single digits during December and January. Avoid summers. I don’t feel you will be able to experience the best of this place during that time. Forest fires are also common in northern Thailand in summers. So I don’t recommend it. . CR：bestiewandererTrip.com Influencer_EN

Such an interesting village located right on the Thai-Myanmar border. Unfortunately, in the low season, many restaurants are closed and the town feels dead.
Good weather, delicious food, clean accommodation, cool dog hunts. I can only say that anyone who has been to must try to experience the atmosphere at Rak Thai Village once. You will surely fall in love with ❤️
Although the road is long and tortuous, it finally arrived! The retro Chinese architectural environment is elegant and the air is fresh! It happened to be the season of cherry blossoms! Everything is the best arrangement
Ban Rak Thai Mae Hong Son is a Yunnan Chinese village located at Mok Cham Pae Subdistrict, Mueang District, Mae Hong Son Province. Inside the village is surrounded by mountains and reservoirs. In the morning, fog is covered. Make the atmosphere here cool and fresh all year round.
If anyone comes to Mae Hong Son Recommend to visit Ban Rak Thai. See the beautiful atmosphere Have a chance to go back and stay again
