Travel Thailand

Thailand's King and Royal Family are probably more revered than monarchs in any country in the world. Their status is reflected in the grandeur of Thailand's royal palaces. These truly are spectacular places to visit and receive a glimpse of Thailand's regal past and an insight into the lives of Thai royalty. In many of the palaces there are museums reflecting aspects of Thailand's past, but museums are by no means restricted to royal palaces - there are scores around the country. Bangkok's National Museum does a thorough job of reflecting all aspects of this diverse country, but each Thai province has its own museum reflecting important aspects of the locality's past and present. Often directly alongside Thailand's museums there are a number of galleries reflecting the country's art though the work of past and present artists. Thailand also boasts numerous theatres and cultural centres which host traditional Thai theatre and dance and offer cultural shows and events. Of course, as with any country in the world, when you visit Thailand you should visit its monuments and shrines. Although you may not grasp their full significance, they still warrant visits; who would go to France without visiting the Arc de Triomphe? And what visit to Thailand would be complete without seeing a Thai boxing match or a trip to a floating market?





One of the key reasons people visit Thailand is the physical beauty of the place and for the adventurous there is plenty to see.
