Thailand
The Kingdom of Thailand, the official name, is the ideal destination to combine cultural discovery, mountain hiking and beach holiday. From one region to another, its historical heritage is full of different cultures influenced by its neighboring countries over the centuries.
Essential
The bustling Bangkok is an impressive metropolis. The Grand Palace, the Wat Pho Temple and the Chinatown are the “must-see” places in this capital city. Chiang Mai, the country’s second largest city, is full of ancient temples and has a charming old fortified town. From there, travelers will be able to discover the North of the country and meet the ethnic minorities. For a complete cultural surprise, the Isan Region, which is still little known to tourists, is highly recommended for its national parks, wild nature and majestic Khmer temples.
Idyllic beaches
The country is also renowned for its islands and beautiful beaches. From Pukhet to Koh Phi Phi, everyone will be delighted. There is also an opportunity to go diving and enjoy other aquatic activities.
