Karen Longneck girl in Mae Hong Son, North Thailand |
This is part 23 of the 48 (out of the 77) of all the provinces in Thailand I have stayed at least 1 night. Mae Hong Son province borders with Myanmar and is an originally isolated province that became famous for its Long Neck hill-tribe people and the famous Mae Hong Son Loop to do by motorbike. The capital town is of course Mae Hong Son. Although I have been many times traveling to Mae Hong Son between 2000 and 2005 I never made many photos and in my travel blog I only made 2 postings about Mae Hong Son.
