Southeast Asia is one of the most demanded destinations in the Russian tourism business. Our compatriots have long managed to find their way to the cities of Thailand. As, however, on its shores and islands, on which there is never winter in the Russian sense of the word. And many people liked it here, and they come back here repeatedly. And we intend to do so in the future.
Cities of Thailand
Of course, in the direction of Southeast Asia, people seek first of all in search of eternal summer and a luxurious beach holiday. And all this they find in abundance on the shores of Thailand, with their endless golden beaches washed by the waters of the warm Indian Ocean. But it would be unjustified frivolity not to pay attention to the host country itself. This is a state with an ancient culture, unique in its expressiveness. The cities of Thailand contain a considerable number of architectural and sculptural artifacts of one of the oldest Buddhist civilizations in world history. But even if you don’t focus on the sights, it will be just very interesting to watch fromclose-up life of a distant Asian exotic country. The cities of Thailand are scattered along the coast and inland. But acquaintance with them most often begins with the capital. Bangkok is a large dynamic city, one of the largest metropolitan areas in Southeast Asia. It makes a strong impression with the urban outlines of its skyscrapers, but here is also the largest number of palaces, parks, museums, ancient temples and other monuments of traditional Thai culture.
And not far from the capital is the well-known Pattaya - a place for beach holidays, noisy entertainment, bars and discos. A map of Thailand with cities usually fixes the viewer's attention on beach resorts and the shortest paths leading to them. Not everyone notices on it, for example, Chiang Mai in the north of the country. It is remote from the seas, but it is one of the most beautiful cities in Thailand, one of the most important cultural and spiritual centers of this country. Here are the most ancient and revered temples of the Buddhist world. If you are interested in Eastern spirituality, then this is the place for you. Chiang Mai is located between picturesque mountain slopes with dense equatorial vegetation and has a highly developed tourist infrastructure.
Cities and resorts of Thailand
And in search of a high-level beach holiday, you should go a little further south. The famous resorts of Thailand are located both on the mainland and on the islands. Big and small. First of all, this, of course, is the famous island of Phuket,located off the southwestern coast of the country in the Andaman Sea. The pristine nature, almost untouched by civilization, is combined here with a highly developed tourist infrastructure, which makes the rest in these places unforgettable.
Nothing inferior to Phuket and smaller and less visited by the public islands - Koh Samui, Koh Phangan and Koh Chang. If you prefer a relaxing holiday without noise and hustle, then you can find it on these secluded patches of land in the Andaman Sea.
