The Kingdom of Thailand embraces
a rich diversity of cultures and traditions, from the
mountains and forests of the North, to the vast rice
fields of the Central Plains and East Coast, the
archaeologically-rich Northeast, and the tropical
islands and stunning coast of the South. Visiting
Bangkok, home to 7 million people, don’t miss the Grand
Palace and the Temple of the Emerald Buddha—or the
chance to bargain in the city’s many markets. |
