Romsai Here live the Kayan long-necked women, the original group before migrating to Thailand in Mae Hong Son and other provinces.

The long-necked Kayan women here are called Kayang. There are 10 villages with about 1,000 people in total. Visiting here, you will see their real way of life, not just a tourist show. I had the chance to visit and watch the long-necked Kayan girls cook for us, see their lifestyle, kitchen, house, bedroom, and enjoy beautiful local food. It was a very impressive experience. The long-necked Kayan are the Kayan tribe, but Thai people call them long-necked Karen. They are an ethnic group living in Myanmar's Kayah State.
The women of this tribe wear brass rings around their necks, making their necks appear long. Currently, they have migrated to escape war and live in Ban Huai Pu Kaeng, Ban Nai Soi, and Ban Huai Suea Thao in Mueang District, Mae Hong Son Province. Many media mistakenly call the Kayan people 'Padaung' or 'Padong,' but most Kayan reject this and want to be called Kayan or Kayan. Some call themselves long-necked Karen as Thai people do. To visit the authentic long-necked Kayan villages,
You must contact a tour company with signs recommended at the hotel where you stay or through the hotel owner. When I visited Loikaw, I stayed at Nan Ayar Inn, a hotel that accepts international tourists. There was a poster for 9 Generation company offering a one-day trip to the long-necked Kayan villages for 80 USD per day per vehicle, accommodating 3-5 people.
