Search flights from BKK to LPT
Pasak Jolasid Dam
Thailand's longest clay-core dam, creating a massive shimmering reservoir in the Lopburi area.
Phetchabun Mountains
Dramatic views of the limestone karsts and high peaks lining the eastern horizon.
Mae Moh Lignite Mine
A staggering open-pit mine, one of the largest in SE Asia, featuring colorful layered earth and giant machinery.
Lampang Valley Basin
A scenic approach over the Wang River and the traditional teak-house clusters of the northern valley.
Best for late morning and afternoon flights. The highlight is the Mae Moh Mine, which appears on the right just as the plane begins its final approach. The scale of the mine is best appreciated from several thousand feet up.
Book Hotels in Lampang
Bangkok Urban Sprawl
Vast views of the metropolitan area and the Chao Phraya River immediately after takeoff.
Ayutthaya Historical Park
Aerial perspectives of the ancient capital's stupas and temple complexes north of Bangkok.
Central Plains Heartlock
Endless patchwork of emerald rice fields stretching across the Ang Thong and Sing Buri provinces.
Doi Khun Tan Range
Rugged, forested mountain ridges that define the natural border of the Lampang province.
Choose the left side for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. During the descent, watch for the dense jungle of the national parks bordering the valley. If taking off to the south, you might see the Gulf of Thailand before the plane turns north.
