Chiang Rai — the Golden Triangle circuit

Demand map

Chiang Rai divides into three micro-markets: Riverside (city boutiques 12–40 rooms), White Temple corridor (excursion-adjacent mid-market), Golden Triangle circuit (small-scale luxury tented and safari-style properties). Volume is small compared to Chiang Mai but ADR is higher in the luxury tent segment.

Seasonality

November–February high season with Western and Chinese leisure. March smoke season depresses arrivals. Rainy season June–August is the quiet window; October is the shoulder. Yi Peng in Chiang Mai spills onto Chiang Rai secondary demand.
