Cherry Blossom, Mae Salong

According to Tourism Authority of Thailand, Mae Salong “is especially picturesque in December and January when sakuras are in full bloom.”

I arrived at Mae Salong on Jan 9, 2007. Unfortunately, the cherry blossom reason had been delayed, possibly due to warmer weather. There were not many flowers

I traveled around Mae Salong and the nearby hill tribe villages. Finally, I found a few cherry trees in full bloom . Here are the pictures…

  4. Hi Kyh,
    I was a few days too early for the cherry blossom season. It should look better when the whole Mae Salong was in full bloom.

  6. Erh... Chin40,
    Have you mistaken cherry tree for something else? You must have heard of sakura, right?
