Nan is renowned for its specialty coffees. From Geisha in Ban Maneepreuk to Bourbon and Cartier in Ban San Charoen, and Arabica Cartier in the Bo Kleua district, a good cup of specialty coffee in Nan is guaranteed to make your morning unforgettable. You'll likely enjoy your coffee amidst the vast landscape and fresh air of the province. Nan, a small province in northern Thailand, is the ideal place to savor locally grown specialty coffee. Many plantations also offer farm stays year-round. The most sought-after, and therefore most expensive, Geisha beans can be found at the Gem Forest Coffee Plantation (Doi Manipruek). There, you'll also find a traditional roastery and insights into the authentic Hmong way of life. In Ban San Charoen, Bourbon and Cartier beans are among the highlights. High up in the Bo Kleua district lies the Arabica Cartimor coffee plantation, which—during most of the rainy and cooler months—is shrouded in a dreamy mist, making it a great spot for camping.

Doi Samer Doi, known for its sea of ​​mist, stretches as a vast mountain peak along the mountain ridges. It is part of the Sri Nan National Park, near which lies the Pa Hua Singha rock formation, resembling a sleeping lion.

Doi Phu Kha National Park, another mountain attraction shrouded in mist, is Nan's main source of fresh water, which flows into the Ping and Pua rivers.
