Chiang Mai: Exploring the Mae Chaem Rice Terraces
Exploring the Mae Chaem Rice Terraces http://www.hotsia.com > > Exploring the Mae Chaem Rice Terraces The rice terraces in Mae Chaem are a method of farming on mountainous terrain. Water is carefully channeled from higher to lower levels along the terraces, creating a unique and beautiful landscape unlike the flat rice fields in central Thailand. Rice terraces are not very common in Thailand, but the most famous ones worldwide are in Sapa, Vietnam.
Mae Chaem is one of the few places in Thailand where you can see rice terraces, although not as extensive as in Vietnam. Besides Mae Chaem, I have also seen terraces in Mae Tuen, Omkoi District, Chiang Mai Province. Although some terraces in Mae Chaem have been replaced by cornfields in years when corn prices are high, there are still enough terraces to enjoy the beauty of Mae Chaem's rice terraces. For the best viewing spots, I recommend that when you arrive in Mae Chaem, visit
Talk to the shop owner there. They have maps available. Sit down, plan your visit, and enjoy a coffee. I don't know how much longer the rice terraces will remain in Mae Chaem because some farmers have started switching to corn for better prices. The best plan is to visit the Mae Chaem rice terraces this cool season so you don't miss out. mr.hotsia October 2010.
