Kanchanaburi, Krabi and Chian Mai are several other places which a lot more visit as holiday in Thailand. However, Over the internet that I appreciate the wealth the us has to supply by living abroad.

However, Thailand is famous for those looking for high quality medical care for a low price. I often catch myself saying, “I will wait till I am back in Thailand to get that checked out.” Many people have a poor view of Thailand when it comes to health care. Yes, you don’t have to get a prescription when you want some medicine to fight off a major virus and you don’t have to get 5 screenings before you can see an expert. All of the facilities I have been to in Chiang Mai, Bangkok, and even the island of Koh Samui have been top notch locations with modern equipment and English speaking doctors. I would wager that I received more attention and better care than I have in the States.

On the west, Kanchanaburi stands out as a place to visit. There is a floating restaurant located on the pier of the River Kwai. With a great view of the bridge and the ambience of being on a raft, it is a wonderful place to rest and have a bite to eat. They serve traditional Thai food and prices were reasonable. It is a wonderful spot to relax if you are not as adventuresome as the rest of your group and want to pass on the long boat ride up and down the river. In fact this is what a couple in our party did, they said they had a wonderful time sitting on the raft drinking and eating while waiting for us to return from the tour of the cemetery and Buddha cave. To get to Kanchanaburi book the various options of Kanchanaburi Tour with Thai Happy Taxi which will surely be a good trip.

Railey Beach in Krabi, although technically in mainland is only accessible by boat. It has a deserted island feeling and is perfect for relaxing with a book. It holds clear blue waters, small islands on the horizon and majestic cliffs surrounding it. You can rock climb, swim or snorkel.

Some of top beaches in Thailand are Patong and Karon beaches in Phuket, Railay and Koh Lanta beaches in Krabi, Ao Kiew in Koh Samet, Lamai and Chaweng beaches in Koh Samui.

Bargain hunter? You’re in the right place. In Bangkok’s markets almost everything can found. Go to Pratunam market for cheap clothes, shoes and bags, to Bo-bae for rock bottom prices, and to Jatujak, the massive Weekend Market, for, well, everything. A very pleasant shopping experience can also be enjoyed in Bangkok’s modern Shopping Malls – take the skytrain to Siam station, where for giant shopping mall dominate the city center – MBK, Siam Center, Siam Discovery Center and biggest and latest of all – the spectacular Paragon. Visitors in Chiang Mai can find exquisite Thai crafts in the Sunday Market and the Night market.

Apart from these, there are a lot of beaches which are not so popular but good for everyone on low budget trip. These are Trang, Ranong. You can easily make your trip to these locations from by taking flights to Bangkok from anywhere. There are a lot of conveyances available for moving in the country.

Back country well worth exploring can be found in the great north east region. Here expect to find mouthwatering food choices as well as the Khymer ruins with their magnificent history.

The important tourist places in Thailand are numerous. To name a few are Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Lumpang, Mae Hong Son, Buri Ram, Khou Kaen, Khorat, Bangkok, Kanchanaburi, Ayutthaya, Sarabauri, Hua hin, Cha Am, Pranburi, Chanthaburi, Rayong, Trat, Ko Chang, Phuket and Hat Yai.

Thailand

The Kingdom of Thailand is in Southeast Asia, coastally situated along the Gulf of Thailand and the Andaman Sea. It borders Burma, now known as Myanmar as well as Malaysia, Laos, and Cambodia. Offering a climate which is tropical, great food, picturesque beaches and a fascinating culture worth exploring, Thailand is a complete treat.

Petra toured Laos, and Thailand and kept her eyes peeled for anything new and awesome… and boy did she ever hit pay dirt! While in kanchanaburi Province, a local guide took her to an absolutely huge Colocasia gigantea specimen growing in a national park. As you can see from the picture, the plant was larger than the minivan that Petra was traveling in!

Tewet Pier – is the last pier on the Tourist Boat journey. It’s famous in Bangkok for the enormous shoal of fish that hang around the pier. Probably because so many people feed them. If you want to join in the fun, you can buy fish food at one of the many stalls dotted around the river. Also, from here take a taxi or tuk-tuk to Vimanmek Mansion, the world’s largest teak building and museum.

Now it’s time to really go aquatic! Board a raft and head to Ban Songkaria, home to the Mon and Karen hilltribe people. Explore the village and learn more about the traditions and customs of these great and colorful peoples. After that, you will actually be only steps away from Myanmar via the Three Pagodas Pass, situated almost 300 meters above sea level as you make your way to Sangklaburi.

Thai’s are football fanatics and the Asian cup was also held during the games in the evening. Our tethers coincided with all the home team games. As Thailand progressed through the ranks tickets sold out and it started to get ugly at the gates. For the semi final the fans burnt down the ticket tents in protest and several thousand extra tried to get in causing an outbreak of police brutality.

Long term students can however get together easily to take a road trip almost any time to either explore a new location, go rock climbing or take a road trip. The same ability to meet new people and adventure with them spontaneously is available in Thailand. This is because Thailand and places like Bangkok is an adventure hub of the world.
