Michelin Green Guide Thailand

From the Michelin Green Guides series.

The Land of Smiles weaves its magic on visitors who flock to Thailand to enjoy its exotic diversity and stunning scenery: the lush valleys, forests and mountains in the north, the brilliant green swards of rice paddies in the central plain, the flat lands of the Khorat plateau in the northeast and the palm-fringed beaches and tropical islands in the south. Nature's bounty is best appreciated in the numerous national parks and nature reserves. The varied climate patterns of this tropical country make it an attractive destination throughout the year.

The Thai nation has been shaped by the fusion of complex cultural influences and the country is a gateway to the rich cultures of Southeast Asia. In addition to the Thais, there are people of Lao, Mon, Khmer, Chinese and Indian origin as well as the remote hill tribes.

Thailand's glorious artistic heritage is evident in its many historic sites, in particular the ancient capitals of Sukhothai and Ayutthaya and the magnificent Khmer stone temples. Bangkok, a bustling capital which is also the centre of government and business, offers many distractions from the frenetic pace of life.

The Buddhist tradition permeates all aspects of life and is reflected in the gentle nature of the fun-loving Thai people. The traditional festivals and the pageantry of state occasions are memorable. Other enjoyable features are the delicious Thai cuisine and the colourful markets in town and country.
