Flagship Projects

The Doi Tung Development Project (DTDP), one of the flagship projects of the Mae Fah Luang Foundation, was established in 1988 by the Princess Mother on Doi Tung, a high mountain in Chiang Rai, the northernmost province of Thailand.

Mae Fah Luang Art & Cultural Park is a large landscaped garden and museum set in the city of Chiang Rai, known for its mature trees, a botanical collection of indigenous plants from the northern region, and its large collection of Lanna artifacts.

The Hall of Opium is an interactive museum located in the Golden Triangle – the border area between Thailand, Laos and Myanmar –an area which was infamous for its poppy fields, drug smugglers, and opium warlords. Throughout the 1960s to early 1990s, the Golden Triangle supplied most of the world’s heroin.
