Thailand is one of Asia's most popular tourist destinations and
offers something for everyone. But what makes it so popular?
 We
have been running travel websites here in Thailand for over seven
years. We regularly ask our visitors what they enjoyed most about
their stay. Here's a short selection of why they chose Thailand.
-
The people. Friendly, smiling, charming, polite and
graceful are the most common descriptions. Thais also have an
infectious sense of fun and humour. It really is pleasant to
have so many strangers offer a ready smile. It's natural to
smile back in return. Suddenly, you are happy to be here.
-
The hospitality. It's no accident that many Thai hotels
feature in the Top 10 lists of the world's best hotels. Whether
it's business, leisure, golf, spas, or beach resorts, you'll
see Thai hotels at the top of most lists. Thais are genuinely
hospitable and offer a level of service that's the envy of their
neighbours.
-
The scenery. Thailand's islands and beaches are amongst
the most scenic in the world. The cities retain a surprising
amount of scenic attractions including Wats (temples) and Palaces.
The National Parks offer a tremendous variety of tropical rainforests,
hill-tribe villages, coral reefs, mountains, rivers and lakes.
Whichever you choose, you will not be disappointed.
-
The food. Thai cuisine is world-renowned and justifiably
popular. Whilst the hot spicy curries and soups are trademark
dishes, the fresh seafood, crisp salads, fresh vegetables and,
of course, the rice and noodle dishes are all very tasty. Then
there's the fruit, and the desserts, and the . . You'll never
go hungry!
-
The value. The Thai baht offers a favourable rate of
exchange for most major currencies. This makes eating out, travelling
around, shopping, enjoying the nightlife and even staying at
the world's leading hotels surprisingly affordable.
Now we haven't yet mentioned safety, climate, transport, nightlife,
shopping, golf, spas, diving, sailing, fishing, trekking, rafting
and so on. Our visitors do mention all of these, and they keep coming
back!
In fact, it would take an entire website to cover all the attractions
of such a diverse and attractive country. That's why we built GOTHAILAND.COM.
So enjoy our site, browse the pages, study the maps, enjoy the
photo tours and contact the various tourist services. Hopefully,
you'll come and visit. You may even like it so much that you'll
end up like we did - living and working in the Land of Smiles!
