The Golden Triangle refers to Thailand, a shy place where the three countries meet.

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.

The golden triangle in a broad sense refers to the "three neglected areas" at the junction of Thailand, Laos and Myanmar. The narrow golden triangle refers to the delta where the Mekong River meets the Messai River.

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 a mountainous area, with unique landforms, lush forests and beautiful scenery, and because Myanmar and Laos are isolated from the world, it adds 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 archway is made of marble and is 4 meters high. It is engraved with the words "Golden Triangle" in Thai and English. There are tourist souvenir shops, jade ornaments shops and restaurants around, which sell all kinds of special goods, such as mountain ethnic costumes in Thailand, jewels and jade in Myanmar and mountain treasures in Laos.
