About Lampang
Lampang is the third largest town in Thailand’s Northern Region, and it receives a lot less visitors than Chiang Mai which is the largest town in the Northern Region. Lampang is, however, starting to grow in popularity with foreign and domestic tourists and there are some interesting places to visit in this very old city.
It’s cheap in Lampang also with fewer tourists than go to Chiang Mai. One of the things Lampang is also known for is its horse drawn carriage which remains in use today, although largely for tourists.

The major attractions in Lampang are:
- Wat Phra That Lampang Luang: A temple dating back to the 15th Century made of teak
- Baan Sao Nak: A teak house built in 1895 with 116 pillars. Probably the best example of a wooden house in Thailand.
- The Thai Elephant Conservation Centre: Elephant centre with a good record for animal welfare.
- Wat Chedi Sao Lang: A temple with 20 chedi of different style, some of which are very old.
- Wat Sri Chum: The largest Burmese style temple in Thailand.
