Customer Reviews
This was an interesting little place. Its very commercialised but was still interesting to see. The old village huts and village setup was interesting. The flow you walk down is basically a row of shops the villagers have set up for tourists. There are very talanted weavers and the things on sale as made onsite. The longnecks are very interesting to see athough it does feel a but zoo like. The villagers dont seem to mind. Im glad i went. 300b entry per person at time of writing.
So peaceful and mesmerizing. Learn about the villagers, where they are from and why the women as young children have their necks elongated with metal tubing up to 5lbs. Fascinating. Walk through the peaceful forest village and browse the stalls where Long Neck Karen’s weave their wares by hand.
This is probable one of the most fascinating village tribe that I have visited in my life. Entrance is 300bt which is used to support the local community living in the village. Once you enter you get to see the locals busy working on products to sell to tourists. As a way of support we have bought couple of items, please support them if you do visit the family. You will understand what I mean if you visit the village..
