Women Empowering Women: A 3-Day Cultural Experience in Chiang Mai

Discover Lanna through the stories of women, local communities, and living traditions.

Chiang Mai offers the delegation a setting shaped by Lanna culture and the people who keep it present in daily life. The city is recognized as a UNESCO Creative City of Crafts and Folk Art and has been named among the World's Best Cities by Travel + Leisure. Over three days, the program moves between family kitchens, city temples, craft communities, and the banks of the Ping River.

The route brings together Chiang Mai's art spaces, artisan communities, quiet temples, and mountain surroundings, with time set aside to slow down and take in each place.

Here, guests experience low-carbon travel while spending time with craftswomen, artisans, entrepreneurs, and local communities whose work continues to shape sustainable tourism in Thailand.

THE JOURNEY

Discover Lanna through women, local communities, and living traditions.

Rather than simply visiting places, the journey invites travelers to meet, learn, experience, and connect with the people behind Chiang Mai’s culture.

Across three days and two nights, Reconnect, Recharge, and Reinforce form the heart of the experience. The journey explores Lanna’s cultural and culinary roots, traditional craftsmanship, and the stories of women who continue to preserve and evolve the heritage of their communities.

WHY WOMEN EMPOWERING WOMEN?

Because every tradition has a story and every story begins with people.

Behind every dish, woven textile, and piece of silverwork are generations of skill, creativity, and knowledge passed between generations.

This journey invites travelers to meet, learn, experience, and support local women and communities through genuine encounters. Along the way, they can share a meal, meet local makers, and discover the stories behind Lanna’s living heritage.

It is a journey shaped not only by the places we visit, but also by the people we meet and the value we leave behind.

THE CORE OF THE JOURNEY

RECONNECT Reconnect with Your Roots

Experience Chiang Mai at a slower pace from the spiritual calm of Wat Phra Singh to an electric tram journey through the Old City, authentic Thai-Lanna cuisine, and the enduring craft of traditional silk weaving. End the day with a relaxed evening surrounded by the timeless charm of Lanna.

REINFORCE Carry Forward the Legacy of Lanna Women

Conclude the journey with the stories of Lanna craftswomen at Wat Sri Suphan Silversmith Heritage and Heuan Ueang Kham Sai. Discover traditional silverwork, craftsmanship, and cultural knowledge that continue to shape the identity of Lanna today.
