Thailand – Places to Visit

Millions of tourists come to Thailand every day and that makes this country Asia’s most popular holiday destination. What is even more amazing, the cultural integrity of the Kingdom of Thailand remains almost undamaged: Of course, neon lights and high-rises can be seen on postcards and photos, but typical Thai people live in fishing communities and farming villages. Buddhist temples and rubber plantations can still be seen more often than modern skyscrapers. If you are planning to visit Thailand, perhaps you are wondering where to go exactly. Hire the private Thai tour guide to show you all the diversities of the Kingdom of Thailand.

The must stop is, certainly, Bangkok, the place where modernity meets tradition in the most intense way, the historic core and the the modern forest of high-rises. After Bangkok, may people travel to the islands of the Ko Chang archipelago or Ko Samet, if they are looking for astonishing beaches. Others usually travel to the seediest resort in Thailand, Pattaya. If you want to visit and feel the most traditional region of Thailand, go to Isaan. If you want to see fascinating religious sights, archetypal farming villages and Khao Phra Viharn, Phanom Rung and Phimai, amazing stone temples built almost millennium ago by Khmers of Cambodia.

Chiang Mai in the northern uplands is very vibrant city, the center of festivals, crafts and arts, but also an attractive historic site. It offers plenty of self-improvement courses (Thai cooking classes and ascetic meditation, for example) and outdoor activities. On the River Kwai, Kanchanaburi is the city that will tell you one quite dark episode in the past of the Kingdom of Thailand because Japanese army had built here the Thailand-Burma Railway during the WW II and the cost of it were thousands of POW lives.

Here are some of the suggestions. If you come to Thailand, you will get even more information and ideas. And, yes, you will certainly want to come back.
