MAE FAH LUANG
OVERVIEW |
Mae Fa Luang is a district in the northern part of Chiang Rai Province, northern Thailand. The area of Mae Fa Luang was separated from Mae Chan district and created a minor district (King Amphoe) on April 1st, 1992. It was official upgraded to a full district on December 5th, 1996. The name Mae Fa Luang was given by Princess Mother Srinagarindra, who was commonly known as "Mae Fa Luang" (lit. Royal Mother from the sky) by the hill tribe people of the area.
The neighboring districts are (from the east clockwise) Mae Sai, Mae Chan, Mueang Chiang Rai of Chiang Rai Province and Mae Ai of Chiang Mai Province. To the northwest is Shan State of Myanmar.

Climate
The north of Thailand is popularly known as a cooler place. The reality is that in the hot summer months, Chiang Rai can be just as uncomfortably hot as much of the rest of the country, if not more so. However, from December to February the nights can be cool enough to require a jacket, so the appellation is not totally undeserved.
The cool season runs from December to March, although there's usually just one week in December when temperatures are actually comfortable. The heat starts to increase soon after the new year and by April or May it can be almost unbearably hot and humid. During the rainy season the downpours can be extremely heavy, but generally only last for an hour or so in the afternoon.
