Being the three similar places, some differences allow us to characterise them.
In Mae Sariang a local public predominates, that is, this is a place where you will find mainly Thai travellers.
Pai and Mae Hong Son are more international tourist destinations, but not the same.
Pai is committed to a young audience, a trendy destination that will be very suitable for those who like the atmosphere of Khaosan Road in Bangkok. In the month of January, an International Reggae Festival is held.
Mae Hong Son is a delicious and romantic city, quieter.
In Pai, many places of interest are within a half-hour radius or less by motorbike, while in Mae Hong Son you often have to travel more than an hour, preferably by car.
Along with the activities in nature and the beautiful temples of Burmese style, the hill tribes are a centre of interest in the whole province.
