Thailand Holiday – Why go to Thailand On Your Next Holiday?
Why does one choose Thailand over the so many other destinations on offer for a holiday when thinking of where to go? Here are 10 reasons to ponder over a cup of coffee:
It’s really the Land of Smiles, and that means polite, friendly people who like to treat foreign visitors well. Is it real or is it just a put up job I hear you ask? Well, it’s real enough, as a lot of the thinking and character of the people stems from Thailand’s main religion, which is Buddhism (95% of Thai people are Buddhist). There’s a happy and quietly tolerant culture deeply imbued in the Thai people, and tourists simply love it.
Bangkok is one heck of a city. It’s on one hand elegant (some of the most luxurious hotels and shopping centres in Asia are located in Bangkok), it’s vibrant and alive (the place throbs with life day and night 24/7), it’s completely multi-cultural (people from all parts of the world visit and live there), and it’s full of history, charm, character and energy. There’s good reason why it’s often voted as one of the most exciting places to visit on earth, and unfortunately too many tourists simply use it as a one night stop-over on the way to the beach, when it offers so much more. It’s much more exciting than you can imagine, so spoil yourself with whatever takes your fancy and spend some quality time in Bangkok.
Great beaches, some are of course finer than others (depending on how many tourists are there at any time), and Thailand has more than its fair share of fabulous beaches. Visit our best beaches information page for more on this and find the perfect beach for you.
Fabulous hotels and holiday homes, and they are often simply fabulous. Some of the most comfortable, luxurious and beautiful hotels anywhere can be found in Thailand, and you simply have to experience it, or why not do your research online and you’ll soon discover how many good hotels there are. We also recommend holiday homes as a way to have more comfort, space, independence and fun.
A destination for all types: from families with small kids, couples on a romantic holiday, a group of guys looking for a fun time, a group of girls out on the town, even for those seeking good medical services while having a holiday, for those who want to peacefully meditate and get away from it all, for those who want to seek wellness with the abundance of spas that can be found, Thailand is brimming with variety.
Great Thai food, and we mean great food. If you like Thai food even a bit, imagine it virtually on tap, and from the smallest and cheapest roadside stall to the swankiest restaurant it almost always tastes good. Thais like their food, they like to use fresh ingredients, and they don’t like spending a lot of money on their food, so it’s mostly cheap, good and delicious, so enjoy.
An abundance of shopping centres, markets, stalls that are everywhere. Thais like to shop and Bangkok, in particular, is full of great shopping experiences. Travel light when arriving in Thailand, and then fill your suitcase as much as you can on your way back home, cause there’s so much to shop and at such reasonable prices.
A place to meditate. There are over 31,200 temples in Thailand, and peace and tranquility can be found almost anywhere in the country. Enjoy some time off from the rest of the world and relax Thai style.
Thai spas and wellness centres. Thailand has some of the best spas that can be found anywhere in the world, and it’s worth taking a little more care of you body when visiting Thailand, and treating it to at least one of those amazing Thai spas.
Activities, why not go to Thailand to do something fun and interesting, be it a sport or hobby. Thailand’s full of exciting things to do for those who seek an active holiday, and being an outdoor and hot country most of the year round, a lot of what there is to do is outdoor and designed to be fun. There is so much to do in Thailand, and we can arrange for you to have active sports holidays to active hobby holidays, take your pick. Why not check out our Thai lessons section as well.
