We all ever wonder 1about where we should be or better yet where we want to travel,
with wonderful places scattered around the world. Thailand, one of the most valuable
secrets of Asia, should undoubtedly be one of the options you should consider. A place
steeped in history worth knowing, wonderful structures to see, its virgin islands, huge
granite pinnacles and the crystalline turquoise color of its waters and cultures with
which you will want to stay, all of this make it one of the most unique and
unforgettable paradises in Pacific Asia.
Thailand opens its doors to you.

With a history that could go back 10,000 years, what we know

today as Thailand2 went through periods of war and peace to
establish what it is now. Thailand has mainly tropical climates,
perfect for spending whole days on its beaches. Its economy is
the second largest in Southeast Asia, mainly due to the exports
they make, and it has a population of approximately 65 million
citizens. As soon as you land, you can already sense their
friendliness, courtesy, hospitality and relaxed personality.
