From the pristine beaches in the south to the lush jungles in the north and everything in between, it is no wonder as to why Thailand has become one of the most visited countries in Southeast Asia. Backed by a long and rich history, a culture that so many people have come to recognize as its greatest aspect and the extreme diversity in each of its beautiful regions are all what help to make this country so truly magnificent.

 

Nicknamed “The Land of Smiles”, Thailand has long been known for its friendly locals and unique traditions that date back to thousands of years ago. Bordered by Myanmar, Laos, cambodia and Malaysia, Thailand is often referred to as the infamous Golden Triangle located right in the geographical heart of Southeast Asia. Because of this, the country has diverse lands spread throughout that attract a plethora of travelers looking for their next adventure.

 

Southeast Asia. Because of this, the country has diverse lands spread throughout that attract a plethora of travelers looking for their next adventure.As a Buddhist country, Thailand is filled with massive and beautifully constructed temples, with most of them being located in the northern parts and more specifically in the large city of Chiang Mai. That city is also home to Thailand’s highest peak, Doi Inthanon and its residents of hill tribes are what continue to draw people to its region.

 

the country is separated into four separate regions, each offering something different than the next. Year round, Thailand experiences rather hot and humid weather conditions all the way up to the highest mountain and all the way down to its southern beaches.

 

Thailand has seen many empires, rulers and kings along with been through a great deal of historical struggle and yet despite these times, the country has continued to rise and become one of what many would consider to be the gem of Southeast Asia. With popularity and an increased interest in the country, Thailand will undoubtedly see growth in all areas possible throughout the continuing years.
