No city is as famous within Thailand as Bangkok, the seat of Thai government and housing some of the most important cultural and historical sites in the world. Setting up a headquarters here for your travels throughout Central Thailand is your best choice, as hotel accommodation and travel are easily arranged.
As a Far East destination, Central Thailand is a magnificent location. There are several national parks that will raise the interest of any eco-tourist and avid outdoors person, while the Cha-am and Hua Hin beach locations are also both within close distance of Bangkok, allowing the sun-soaker in all of us the chance to relax in the rays.
Bangkok is a city of tradition, despite its modern appeal. Set against the backdrop of skyscrapers, rituals are still carried out here with a natural precision of daily life. There are numerous temples and historical buildings that can leave the traveller marvelling at walking through modern streets at one moment, and then in the next be stepping through into a world that is centuries old.
This is a city of a thousand experiences. It is impossible to take it all in with just one visit. This is a place where the modern traveller can have access to all the amenities of home, such as high speed internet and 6 star hotels, but also delve into a culture steeped in ritual and traditions, where visiting a temple is as much a part of daily routine as the eating of food.
For a Far East holiday, Bangkok, Thailand is absolutely a place to mark on your map.
