The "Golden Triangle" in a broad sense refers to the "three noes" areas along the borders of Thailand, Laos and Myanmar. In a narrow sense, the Golden Triangle refers to the delta where the Mekong River meets the American River Jose.
As a symbol of the Golden Triangle in Thailand, the famous Golden Triangle archway is located near Sobruak village, the ancient city of Qingsheng. It is located between Meisai Town and Qingsheng Town, 60km away from Meisai Town and 1 1 km away from Qingsheng Town, facing Myanmar and Laos across the river.
Because it is located in the mountainous area, with unique terrain, lush trees and beautiful scenery, and because Myanmar, two ancient countries, is closed to the outside world, it adds a mysterious color to it. The Golden Triangle was once famous for producing 80% of the world's opium, and now it has become a popular tourist destination in northern Thailand.
It attracts 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. There are tourist souvenir shops, jade jewelry stores and restaurants selling all kinds of special goods around.
