Thailand is a highly popular tourist destination
with a steadily growing number of visitors. With
the vast amount of sights to see in Thailand, and
places to visit, one might quickly get confused.
What is "better"? The south or the north? Which
Treks should I do, or which is the "best" beach?
Should I visit the temples, the national reserves,
the waterfalls, and where is the best place for
shopping? What is different between a Spa
Treatment and a normal Thai Massage?
The answers depend on the person - one should
try to define areas of interest first and then
build a travel itinerary accordingly. This article
gives a brief description of the highlights in
Thailand to assist you in planning your perfect
holiday. The full article can be found in

Buddhism, Historical Sites and Exotic
Cultures
The most visited sites in Thailand are probably
the Royal Palace and the main Buddhist Temples.
Ancient cities worth a visit are in Ayuthaya or
Sukhothai. One should not miss the Hill Tribes
villages in North Thailand in the Mae Hong Sorn
province.
Treks, Nature and Wildlife - Visit North
Thailand for Jungle
North of Thailand is the best area for Trekking
and activities in Nature - Elephant ridingtreks,
Mountain climbing Treks, and many water
activities, such as Rafting and Canoeing. In Khao
Yai in North East of Thailand one can discover
wildlife in the country's biggest National
Reserve. Most impressive Waterfalls and the famous
River Kwai are in Kanchanaburi, west Thailand.
Shopping
Both the bargain hunter and the luxury shopper
will have a great time in Bangkok. The huge
weekend market offer a vast variety of goods -
don't be ashamed to bargain, it's part of the fun!
And then, the Modern shopping malls are an
experience in itself, especially the recently
completed Paragon.
Beaches
Those seeking to relax on a Tropical Beach will
go to Krabi, Ko Phi Phi or Ko Lanta. Ko Samet and
Ko Chang are two peaceful islands not too far from
Bangkok. For more action, Ko Samui is a better
choice - it is a special island that quickly
evolved from a backpackers favorite to a 5 starts
resorts beaches. Phuket, the biggest island in
Thailand, offers both convenience, variety of
activities and long, warm beaches. Pattaya, in
east coast, is a beach front town with the best
nightlife in Thailand, and some say the best in
the world.
Wherever you go, it is recommended to
Book
your Hotel in advance, especially in the high
season.
