This lake is a hidden gem! Not many Western tourists visit Red Lotus Lake, perhaps because it’s out of the way 👭 Don't forget to visit the Red Lotus Lake in Northeast Thailand if you have enough time and visit Thailand in December, January, or February. 

Similar to the Lantern Festival in Chiang Mai, this is also much interesting to visit. The entire lake turns pink in the winter months because of the flowers! 👩‍❤️‍👩 Just imagine a visit to a pink lake on Valentine’s Day! It would be really romantic.
