SUMMARY

Ko Tao Island

The first destination we recommend you visit in Thailand is the island of Ko Tao. Located in the Gulf of Thailand, this island is renowned for its natural beauty. It is ideal for diving and offers superb beaches to relax on. To get there, you have to take a boat, as there is no airport on the island. Plan to spend 3-4 days here to fully enjoy all that the island has to offer.

The reclining Buddha in Bangkok

Then we invite you to visit the Reclining Buddha in Bangkok. Also known as the Sleeping Buddha, this temple is located in Wat Pho in Bangkok. The Reclining Buddha is 46 meters long and 15 meters high, making it the largest reclining Buddha statue in Thailand. The temple is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and entry costs around 200 baht.

Buddha Mountain in Pattaya

Buddha Mountain in Pattaya is a unique place to visit. This mountain is famous for its mosaic-encrusted Buddha statue. It also offers panoramic views of Pattaya City. You can access the mountain by car or taxi. There is no entrance fee to visit this place.

The road from Bangla to Patong Beach

The road from Bangla to Patong Beach is famous for its vibrant nightlife. It's the perfect place to party and enjoy the many bars and clubs in the area. However, it is best not to bring children here, as it is a very busy area. During the day, the street is quiet, but it comes alive at night with many shows and activities.

Shanghai Old Town in Chiang Mai

Shanghai Old Town in Chiang Mai is a historic place to visit in Thailand. You can visit several temples in this old walled city, such as Wat Phra Singh and Wat Chedi Luang. Also don't miss the weekend night market, where you can sample a variety of Thai dishes and buy souvenirs. Chiang Mai is one of the most historic places in the entire country.

The White Temple in Chiang Rai

The White Temple in Chiang Rai is a unique place to visit in Thailand. This Buddhist temple is famous for its bright white color and exotic design. It uses mirrors in its architecture, which gives it a unique appearance. The temple is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and entry costs 50 baht per person for foreigners. There is also another colorful temple nearby called the Blue Temple, which is also worth a visit.

Khao San Street in Bangkok

Khao San Street in Bangkok is known as a traveler's paradise. It is very popular with backpackers and offers a lively atmosphere with plenty of bars, restaurants and street markets. You can buy a traditional Thai sarong or scarf there. Khao San Street is particularly lively on Friday and Saturday evenings.

The elephant sanctuary

Thailand is also famous for its elephant sanctuaries. However, make sure you choose a sanctuary that treats elephants humanely. You can feed them, bathe them and interact with them in an environment that respects their well-being. Elephant sanctuaries are found in different regions of Thailand, such as Chiang Mai, Pattaya and Krabi.

Floating markets

Floating markets are a unique experience not to be missed in Thailand. You can go shopping in a traditional Thai boat and buy food, souvenirs and artwork. Floating markets are found in different parts of the country, such as Damnoen Saduak near Bangkok and Amphawa near Samut Songkhram.

Bangkok's rooftop bars and rooftop pools
