Ban Nor Lae is perched on a picturesque hilltop overlooking Doi Ang Khang, Thailand
A great joy of traveling is finding an attraction not talked about in any of the popular travel guides. And sometimes one can find the coolest places just by wandering around. That’s how we stumbled over this spectacular scenic overlook at the Thai-Myanmar border point at the village of Nor Lae, in Doi Ankhang, Thailand. We’ve traveled all over Northern Thailand and this site presents the most dramatic views of Thailand and a neighboring country we’ve seen, in this case, Myanmar. The main road through the village of Nor Lae leads directly into a driveway up a small hill. At the crest, you’ll note a shed where village ladies sell their handmade, indigenous wares. Drive straight over the crest, and you’ll enter a small Thai Army border post. You can park and walk about 100 feet right up to the Thai Myanmar border.From these mountains and vantage point you can peer directly into the Burmese valleys below. And of course, direct across from the Thai Army base on a corresponding mountain in Myanmar, is a Burmese Army border observation post.How to get there:Plug these coordinates into your GPS: 19°56’26.37″N 99° 2’29.36″EThis journey will take you through some steep mountain roads. Watch out for the herds of cattle. You’re liable to run into them at any turn up in the mountains. Also, these roads run from finished to very rough condition quickly. Note: I have pictures to upload. However Trip Advisor is not giving me the option to do so.
The views are reasonably interesting but not eye opening or evocative of a hidden part of the world as other review suggests.There’s the usual edgy border town atmosphere with a mix of people sitting around selling nothing (for who?) and shambolic Thai border guards passing the time. It seems to be a hub for hill people to sell bamboo apparently for the border patrols which was about as interesting as it got.Probably worth the short detour from Doi Ang Khang though.
