The golden triangle refers to Thailand

The Golden Triangle refers to a triangle located in the border areas of Thailand, Myanmar and Laos in Southeast Asia.

The "Golden Triangle" covers roughly Shan and Kachin States in northern Myanmar, Chiang Rai Province in Thailand, Langnanta, phongsaly province and Udomsai Provinces in northern Chiang Mai, and Luang Prabang Province in the west, with a total of more than 3,000 villages and towns.

As a symbol of the Golden Triangle in Thailand, the famous Golden Triangle archway is located in Sobruak village near the ancient city of Qingsheng. It is located between Meisai Town and Qingsheng Town, 60 kilometers away from Meisai, 0 kilometers away from Qingsheng1/kloc-0, and faces Myanmar and Laos across the river. Because it is located in the mountainous area, the unique landform, lush trees and beautiful scenery add to the mystery of this place.

The Golden Triangle has become a famous tourist attraction in northern Thailand, attracting countless tourists every year. The Golden Triangle Arch is made of marble and 4 meters high. It is engraved with "Golden Triangle" in Thai and English. Souvenir shops, jade ornaments shops, restaurants and other shops are all around, selling all kinds of special goods.

The geographical environment of the Golden Triangle:

1. Geomorphological features: the traffic here is blocked and the mountains are stacked, with a total area of about1.5 ~ 200,000 square kilometers. The ups and downs of the mountains form a three-dimensional climate, and the people at the foot of the mountain are extremely hot. At that time, people at the top of the mountain may have to surround the fireplace to keep out the cold. Relatively speaking, the natural conditions in high-altitude areas are relatively poor, and people's lives are more difficult.

2. Climatic environment: The subtropical region enjoys long sunshine time and abundant sunshine, which is beneficial to the growth of various plants. The change of monsoon belt in Southeast Asia makes it a dry and wet season. In summer, the southwest monsoon brings a lot of hot and humid moisture from the sea, forming a wet season when there is abundant rainfall, and in winter, the dry and cold monsoon belt in the north affects the formation of a dry season. This periodic change regulates the rhythm of local creatures.
