Lampang city center is a charming neighborhood known for its well-preserved horse-drawn carriages, which remain a unique mode of transport and a major tourist attraction. The streets are lined with early 20th-century shophouses and colonial-style buildings, reflecting the city's history as a teak trade hub. Visitors can take a carriage ride through the old town, passing temples, markets, and the Wang River. The area's relaxed pace and architectural heritage make it a delightful place to explore on foot or by bicycle.
