The elephant is the symbol of the kingdom

I have visited Thailand for the third time and I can tell you, this has not been my last visit. I feel such a great love for this amazing country. Amazing because it has so much to offer.

The lovely and nice Thai people to start with. The very nice and calm way in wich they behave, really appeals to me. Their smiles are still in my memory.
The love for the royal family (in the first place king Bhumibol) is very special. The devotion to the Buddha goes even further. Buddism is a very serious and alive relegion in Thailand.

The very beautifull and diverse nature from mounteneous landscape, to ricefields, to white sandy beaches and jungle.

A very interesting aspect of the country is off course buddism. Take your time and visit some temples. Make a little chat with the monks. The architecture and art wich can be seen at the temples is of a breathtaking beauty.

Lots of sportive activities like trekking, rafting, biking and so on, can be done here as well. Remember to drink enough because the very humid heat will make you sweat, even when you are just walking.

If you just like to chill, travel to the islands wich are extremely beautifull. you will definitely forget about all your worries here.

I could just talk for hours about this country, so I think it's better for me and you to stop my introduction here. However, I will recommend everyone to pay amazing Thailand a visit.

Small houses protect us from evil spirits - Thailand

Sacrifice to protect us from evil... Local Customs (1)

Almost all Thai people have a small spirit house in front of their own house or building. They make sacrifices every day... more travel advice
