Golden Triangle is located on the border of the states of Thailand, Laos and Burma and is located on the Mekong River. The rich history of this region is mainly specified by the cultivation of opium and its heyday in the drug industry. But this is past, and now the golden triangle surrounds tourism. Here you will find Buddhist temples, magnificent Buddha statues, as well as a nice boat ride to the „No One Island“ where there are traditional souvenir markets.
