Thailand, with a history dating back over a thousand years, is a complex blend of cultures. Often called the "Land of Smiles," it's a place where tradition and modernity meet. This fusion is seen in various art forms, from dance to cinema, as well as in the cuisine, known for its balance of sweet, salty, sour, and spicy flavours. The country's biodiversity is also noteworthy, encompassing ecosystems that range from mountains to tropical beaches, and extending to tropical rainforests, home to unique wildlife. Whether exploring Bangkok, diving in Koh Tao, or visiting cities like Chiang Mai, Pai, and Chiang Rai, Thailand provides options for different travellers, from backpackers and digital nomads.
