Things to do in Mae Sot, Tak Province: The Best Points of Interest & Landmarks

October 2, 2021 Jeremy Dunfee

Mae Sot (Thai: แม่สอด, pronounced [mɛ̂ː sɔ̀ːt]; Burmese: မဲဆောက်, [mɛ́ sʰaʊʔ]; Shan: ႄႈသၢႆ, [ɛ sʰaaj]) is a city in western Thailand that shares a border with Burma to the west. It is notable as a trade hub and for its substantial population of Burmese migrants and refugees. The city is part of Tak Province, 87 km from the city of Tak and 509 km from Bangkok. It is home to the district headquarters of Mae Sot District, and is the main gateway between Thailand and Burma. As a result, it has gained notoriety for its trade in gems and teak, as well as black market services such as people trafficking and drugs.

Hilltribe Market

Reviewed By 917MikeC - Hobart, Australia

We stopped here on the drive from Mae Sot to Tak. This used to be a very difficult road but its now a magnificent 4 lane highway ! Great engineering effort through the Mountains! The market is very extensive extremely clean ! The fruit and Vegetables on sale are magnificent the Local strawberries a highlight! As well they have clothing and and array of other goods. Its obviously a market to servive locals not tourists but we found it a highlight of our Journey in this part of Thailand. Stop and enjoy the colour sounds and aroma of local activities!
