Irish Independent World Travel Guides - Thailand
About the Thailand Guide
If you're sampling Asia for the first time, Thailand is the best place to start. An intriguing cocktail of ancient culture and new world sparkle, variety really is the spice of life here. Zip into its bustling capital Bangkok, a city of glistening skyscrapers, magical markets and golden temples, before hopping over to the Andaman Coast to chill on some of the most beautiful sands in the world.
For serious adventure, head north to the crisp mountain city of Chiang Mai and higher still into the Golden Triangle, where you can stay in a bamboo hut, mingle with isolated hill tribes and dip a toe into luscious Laos.
This essential Irish Independent guide will help you discover the best of Thailand your way.
