Top places to visit in Thailand
Chiang Mai
This city in mountainous northern Thailand is home to a community of artists and digital nomads, attracted by its relaxed lifestyle and ancient architecture. Here you can sample Thai food at Kad Ton Payom market, wander through tropical gardens and get your culture fix in local galleries.
Krabi
Krabi is home to the Phi Phi islands, which jut out from the sea like giant green boulders, and the beautiful Railay Beach, a spot popular with rock climbers and only accessible by boat. In Krabi, you’ll find craggy, sheer limestone cliffs and dense mangrove forests, as well as idyllic white sandy beaches.
Bangkok
This heady capital city is abuzz with life. Explore Bangkok the way locals do, by travelling around by tuk-tuk, Skytrain or traditional riverboat. Head to the Old Town to admire the beauty of Wat Pho temple.
Khao Sok
Khao Sok’s abundant biodiversity makes it the perfect spot to explore Thailand’s natural beauty. Take a boat ride into a lush habitat of rainforests, caves and limestone islands or grab your hiking boots to see the surrounding countryside by foot.
