Adventure in Thailand between smiles
Thailand is called the Country of Smiles and if you've been lucky enough to visit it, you'll easily understand why. The hospitality and friendliness of its citizens make it the country of optimism par excellence. In these times, who wouldn't want to constantly surround themselves with smiles and good vibes, forgetting about everything?
What to see and discover in Thailand?
This Southeast Asian country, bordered by Cambodia and Laos to the east, Myanmar to the west, and Malaysia to the south, has become the last few years in the star destination for all those of us who love to travel, being able to enjoy activities such as hiking through the Thai rice fields in the mountains of Chiang Mai; Diving or snorkeling on the paradisiacal beaches of the Phi Phi Islands, or experience the chaotic atmosphere, unique for its smells and colors, and the legendary temples of one of the most populated cities in the world, Bangkok.
Amazed by the temples of Thailand
At the same time, it is a country with an ancient culture, which to this day has not lost an iota of its exoticism. One of the most visited kingdoms is Ayutthaya, former capital of the kingdom of Siam. An archaeological complex located 80 km from Bangkok made up of ruins of palaces, Buddhist temples, monasteries and statues. In total they have some 4,000 temples scattered throughout the country, each one more interesting.
Some curiosities and culture of Thailand
To travel to a country like this, you have to be prepared to know that you are venturing into a totally different culture. The culture shock is so high that you have to be careful, as you could even end up in the dungeon. Did you know that in Thailand it is forbidden to step on coins or bills that bear the image of the king? Doing so can be considered a violation of the law and can even be punished! Or, for example, pointing, touching the head or walking past someone sitting on the ground is considered disrespectful.
What currency is used in Thailand?
You also have to be prepared to buy, it's not easy. It is essential that you know that their currency is the Thai Bath and one bath corresponds to about 3 cents in euros or that the practice of haggling is a basic in this country.
