Bo Klua Loop and other Motorbike Trips

Image
The Bo Klua Loop is one of the famous attractions of Nan province, to do by Motorbike / Scooter / Vespa or even with your bicycle. Most people doing the Bo Klua Loop come on their own motorbike or rent one in Bangkok, Chiang Mai or Chiang Rai. But in Nan town are nowadays also a few shops renting Motorbikes or Scooters. For more information have a look at Motorbike Rental Shops. Besides the famous Bo Klua Loop there are also other very interesting loops & routes to be made with stunning view, small villages and rivers in the mountains. And the nice thing about the roads here in Nan province is that that they are not busy, so relatively safe to ride.

As for scooters it is recommended not to rent a "small scooter" but at least 150cc. And of course ALWAYS wear a good helmet, jacket, gloves and good shoes. Also be aware that scooters are by law motorbikes and that you will need a motorbike driver-license for it (check your travel insurance).

Motorbike Rental

Image
Nan province is motorbike touring heaven, not only the route going to Nan but also within Nan province. So once you are in Nan it would be a great idea to rent a scooter or motorbike. Some guesthouses or hotels do rent scooters but luckily there are now also a few shops that have started renting out motorbikes & scooters. A little warning before you are going to rent.
The law about riding a motorbike in Thailand For riding any scooter or motorbike in Thailand you will need to have a motorbike driver-license. Not that the rental company will ask for it but if you do not have a motorbike driver-licsense you might have 2 problems. First of all police could stop & fine you. Secondly your travel-insurance might not be valid in case of accident. Also be aware that most scooters & motorbikes do not have a full-insurance. They will only have a simple third-party insurance.

Communist Memorial & Mount 708 at Phu Phayak

Image
Phu Phayak means Giant Mountain and it is a mountain range in the most north-eastern side of Nan province. It was once the place for opium farming and the battlefield between the Thai soldiers and Communists soldiers in the 1970's. It is famous as being one of the last strongholds of the Communist Party of Thailand (CPT). The reason for having a HQ in this area was of course the difficult accessible mountain range that is bordering (communist) Laos. The area is also home to ethnic minorities (Lawa & Hmong) who came from southern-west China

Nowadays the area is home to a few villages that are supported by a Royal Project Phu Phayak to help local people in a sustainable existence without growing opium. And nowadays there is a Communist Memorial to honour the communist soldiers fighting the Thai government. The museum and memorial was officially opened in December 2005 and is the result of combined efforts of local people and ex-communists to reconcile the past disagreements…

Wat Sri Mongkol near Tha Wang Pha

Image
Although the temple is officially called Wat Sri Mongkul locals will use the old name Wat Kong. It  was originally just a village temple at the village Ban Kong. And although the temple itself not really warrants a vist, the museum and stunning view over the rice-fields with Doi Phu Kha in the back ground are good reason to stop here on your way to Sila Phet Waterfall or Phu Fa Royal Project. The temple museum is originally setup by one of the former abbot's of the temple, as showcase of the old way of life in temples and in Nan province. The museum is housed in a beautiful teak-wooden building and shows daily items from the old & recently old days.

In front of the temple is a huge terrace from where you have a stunning view over rice-fiels with the mountains of Doi Phu Kha National Park in the back ground. Of course there are a few selfie-optionals for Thai tourists and a sala to sit & relax. Actually in the past 2 year the temple has become a favourite place for Thai to…

Pua Bus Station

Image
As of 2017 Pua has a real bus station, located at the south-end of town, about 50m from the main road route 101. But currently (June 2019) most public busses still also stop along route 101 in Pua town, most times somewhere near the main T-intersection of Pua town. But it looks like more busses are starting to use the new bus station.

Check out our Travel Blog about Pua


You might notice something on the photo ..... no people. As said currently (March 2018) not much people are really using the bus station. Most bus companies have a office in a shophouse along route 101 near the main T-intersection. Another thing you might see is the sign for the bus from Nan to Luang Prabang (Laos). But despite the fact that the bus is passing Pua it is not stopping in Pua. So if you want to go with that bus to Luang Prabang (Laos) then you will first have to go to Nan town, 60km south of Pua. Joke? No, even worse although there is an office from the bus company here you will have to buy the tickets fo…
