More Thailand Tours, Sightseeing & Things to Do
The Kingdom of Thailand draws more visitors than any other country in
southeast Asia with its irresistible combination of breathtaking natural
beauty, inspiring temples, renowned hospitality, robust cuisine and ruins of
fabulous ancient kingdoms.
From the stupa-studded mountains of Mae Hong Son and the verdant
limestone islands of the Andaman Sea, to the pulse-pounding dance clubs of
Bangkok and the tranquil villages moored along the Mekong River, Thailand
offers something for every type of traveler.
Of course Thailand, like other Asian countries, has been influenced by
contact with foreign cultures. But the never-changing character of Thai
culture has remained dominant, even in modern city life. Often depicted as
fun-loving, happy-go-lucky folk (which indeed they often are), the Thais are
also proud and strong, and have struggled for centuries to preserve their
independence of spirit.
Thailand is divided into 5 regions:
- The Central Region is
extremely rich in historical sites. These include Nakhon Pathom,
Kanchanaburi. Bang Pa-In,
Ayutthaya, Saraburi, Lopburi and, most important
of all, Bangkok, Thailand s capital and major point-of-entry.
- The East Coast unfolds in a
series of bays and beaches to the Thai-Kampuchean border. Many popular
resorts, including Pattaya, Asia's premier beach resort, occupy a coast
characterized by cliff-hidden bays, palmfringed beaches, fishing
communities, lovely islands and largely tranquil Gulf waters.
- The North - Bordered by Burma
and Laos, characterized by forested mountains -- lower extremities of
Himalayan foothills -- and fertile river valleys, northern Thailand
encompasses part of the fabled Golden Triangle and was the cradle of Thai
civilization where several centuries ago, small independent kingdoms held
sway.
- The Northeast Plateau is
a distinctive region thanks to a topography of forested mountains and
national parks and rolling farmland: to its colorful inhabitants who speak
their own melodious dialect, have a delicious highly spiced cuisine, and a
hospitable, vibrant and oftentimes boisterous folk culture: and because of
archaeologically significant excavations and shrines -- such as Ban Chiang
where the world's oldest Bronze Age civilization flourished some 5,600
years ago: and venerable prasat hin (stone castle) temples, legacy of
I-San's former importance to the Angkor-centred Khmer empire.
- The South is characterized by
lush tropical islands, dazzling palm-fringed beaches, coral reefs teeming
with colorful marine life, picturesque fishing villages with handpainted
boats, remote national parks, forested mountains, waterfalls, historic
cities, ubiquitous rubber estates, wildlife sanctuaries, and the
juxtaposition of temples and mosques.
Golf in Thailand
The combination of quality courses, breathtaking scenery, lavish
clubhouses, friendly caddies and low cost green fees is a very appealing
prospect to any golfer. It therefore comes as no surprise that Thailand is
rapidly becoming one of the world’s hotspots for golf.
