Once one of Thailand’s remotest provinces, Mae Hong Son is now readily accessible by air from Chiang Mai, as well as by a wonderful loop drive through Mae Sariang and back via Pai  and Soppong– or vice versa. Singularly isolated, Mae Hong Son is not yet very developed. The townsfolk may be citizens of Thailand, but most are Shan, Karen, Yunnanese Chinese or Hill Tribes. The temples are Burmese in style, and the pace of life amazingly tranquil.

Kompong Chhnang (Port of Pottery) is an important river port on the Tonle Sap River, 60km (38 miles) north of Udong.<br/><br/>

The economy of the area is dominated by rice production and many locals live on floating fishing villages during the high-water monsoon season.<br/><br/>

Archaeological remains found in Kompong Chhnang province have been linked to the (pre-Khmer) Dvaravati kingdom, dating from the 6th to the 13th century CE.
