    The Golden Triangle is the legendary area where the borders of Thailand, Laos, and Myanmar converge at the confluence of the Mekong and Ruak rivers, once the world's largest opium-producing region and now a popular tourist destination in northern Thailand near Chiang Rai. The Thai side features viewpoints, the House of Opium museum documenting the region's complex narcotics history, and boat trips to the small island of Don Sao in Laos.
