- In this video, I travel from Lampang to Phrae. I had always imagined Phrae to be a quiet, dusty town so i was excited to see what this town has to offer.
I started my day by saying goodbye to Lampang and then driving the 2 hours to Phrae. I arrived with no plan and not knowing where to go, my first stop was coffee! I found a nice little place in town. Then it was on to the famous Temple of the tortoise ( Wat Phong Sunan ) I’m not really a temple person but this was something different and special. I then make my way to the center of Phrae.

Wayne, me again….
Just to let you know how much I and we really appreciate you’re hard work
Was here in Chiang Mai In songkran and back again for Loi krathong. After walking around in blistering heat I don’t think many people realise what a full time difficult job you have
I walked for about 2 km and was ready for the emergency ward 😂
But you do this nearly every day go home edit then spend so much time answering everyone. No easy !!!!!!
You’re the goat man
Keep em coming……
Thank you buddy 🙏 I hope you had a great time in Chiang Mai. Thanks for all the support mate. Hope to see you next time.
If I am not completely mistaken, Phrae is known for the manufacture of teak furniture which they supply all over Thailand. You can design your own furniture and they manufacture to order. It would be interesting if you ever visit a factory in the future.
I do believe that it correct 👍
The Golden Tortoise was beautiful, and I don't know what the monk was singing but it sounded so nice that I listened to him sing it again. Bobby Dazzler man.
I could listen to that Monk all day. Special temple mate. Cheers.
Looks like a well spread out old town - the tortoise temple was a Bobby D - Look forward to more WW 👌👍👋🙏
It's a bigger town then what I first relised mate. Bobby Dazzler!!
What you say Wayne about Lampang being clean, orderly and having 'That unique look' sort of describes my recollections of it many years ago. I also recall a uniqueness and uplifting spirit of the people not easily forgotten.
'Long' reminds of some of the towns in the Wyoming and Montana that are as the locals say "Two blocks wide and 2 miles long". Phrae does look like the place to get away from it all and recharge.
One of the cleanest I've seen. It's defo one of a kind mate. Long was so small 🤣. I've come across so many towns in the middle of nowhere.
Been there many times as its famous for teak furniture and we bought most of our stuff there. The pronunciation of Phrae sounds like pair or pear thats listening to my wife who is Thai. Its a big business town with lots money they are actully in the process of building a railway from Chiangsan Chiangrai to Phrae . Have fun nice place.
Nice one Colin, I’ve not seen many wood places around but it is indeed a furniture town. Yes, the locals pronounce it Pear. 👍👍
Ohh mate the Turtles head was poking out bro...hahaha.
Looks like a nice little town Wayne, maybe on the quiet side for you but perfect for me an I'm sure the roads around that area would be excellent on the bike
🤣🤣 Cool little town, very quiet. The roads have been amazing. I've had them all to myself. Cheers mate.
Great vlog Wayne. Thanks for showing us around 😆👍🏼
Nice one Kashif, cheers mate.
I’m watching your video from ban maelai village in phrae. With my wife and friend .. what a chance of that lol 😂
Nice! I'm really liking Phrae. Great little town
You're what we call "boots on the ground" 🙂✌🦶
Enjoyed this vlog Wayne! Just a tip, my Thai partner says that the correct way to pronounce Phrae is “Pear” like the fruit. Looking forward to your next vlog! Cheers!.
Thank you! Yep, the Thais pronounce it Pear 👍
The sound reminds me of big Buddha in Phuket very loud.nice to see another town .
Nice! Loved the sound of the Monk.
This video is giving me a LOT of ideas for when I get back to Thailand. I was just glancing through google maps to look at various hotels and such...and wow. Prices for a really NICE hotel are CHEAP!
Yes, some great hotel prices here. I got a good deal and it's not a bad place.
For those that didn't know Long where Wayne stopped at the 7 Eleven is a district within the province of Phrae and not actually called a town. I thought I'd learn a bit from google and also found that Phrae is a town and the capital of the province of Phrae. I had no idea so for me it is all rather educational. and very interesting. There is a place there called Phae Mueang Phi Forest Park that looks quite amazing and could be worth a visit. Also a free Thai Movement Phrae Museum which could be interesting. Just a thought in case you are battling to find things of interest buddy. Top video as always Wayne. Cheers 🍻🤩
Nice one! Good old google 🤣. Never really battling for things mate. Already filmed forest park. It's ok, nothing special. Good day out though. Cheers man.
More of that Wayne looks good
Nice one Andrew 👍
Loving the series Wayne, could you do a trip like that catching a bus or a train or do you really need to have a motorcycle?
Thanks mate. You can get buses to most of these small towns. That would be a great way of doing it. Nothing like doing it on a motorcycle though.
Couldn't you drop off your bag with the staff? Enjoying the series. Safe travels buddy🐢
Yes mate, but I don’t like doing it with the MacBook and stuff these days. If it was bigger bag I probably would
My sister in law lives in Phrae. Home of the teek wood houses.
Nice 👍
It's a Long way to Phrae, mate. Haven't taken this route across before, looks OK. If you blink, you'll miss this one horse town! Golden turtle, it's the Buddhist symbol for a long, prosperous life. Getting back to Lampang, yes, the city park really makes the town. The cleanliness is very much part of the attraction.
A long slog on Lucille mate. I’ve had most of the roads to myself , very quiet. Lampang is a great place. Cheers Lars 👍
@@ChilloutLars Hmm… Is it a turtle or is it a tortoise?🤔
@@Simdoog Leaning towards a tortoise
Had lunch at the vegetarian restaurant across from Fang hospital. Her food is delicious.
Nice one buddy, I was in there every morning.
Good on ya mate.
Cheers John.
My wife is from Phrae, been their a few times loads to see including the old Governors house and jail. Free to visit. Night markets. Enjoy.
Happy days mate. Great town.
Very little traffic and noise what a difference from Bangkok and Chiang mai Wayne
Perhaps a bit too quiet but your filming is beautiful and it’s absolutely freezing in U K !
Yeah its very quiet mate. I just seen the news with the snow back home. Keep warm buddy! sweating here.
Hey mate I’m in Phrae
Nice one Brian, it's a great little town.
Maybe you have left Phrae but if you go to Khum Jao Luang in the town centre dont miss the basement torture place.
Nice one buddy!
Jesus mate that's feckin grim 😆
In Buddhism the Turtle represents long life. Buddhists believe if they pass under the belly of the turtle they will be blessed with long life.
Happy days 👍
Turtle heading haha
