Historical Heritage in "Venice of the Orient"

Thailandis famous for being the largest rice exporter in the world, for being an ace in the production of the best refined lace, for the incredible cuisine, specialized massage therapy and for having the largest newspaper market in Southeast Asia. With its name translated as "freedom" or "human being", Thailand is the country of orchids with the Garuda Hindu representation of god Vishnu, a mythical half bird half human creature as a national symbol.  Its capital city Bangkok, nicknamed the "Venice of the Orient" impresses through the royal residence- the Great Palace of Bangkok, but also through the colorful Butterfly Garden or the feared and appealing Snake Farm.

Visit the prehistoric sites in Nan, the city Borpith to see the biggest Buddha statue or admire the dawn and sunset at Patong Beach. Relax and have fun with snorkeling, diving and exploring the underwater magic of the coral reefs at Pattaya, absorb the beauty of the Botanical Gardens on Phuket Island and find your peace at Phanom Rung, a sacred temple of the former Khmer Empire. Be one with nature at the Huai Kha Khueng Wildlife Sanctuary and see the praised Asian Elephants.

Thailandis a destination full of appeal ready to say “sawadi” and welcome its visitors.
