The Thai people themselves are as exquisitely engaging as their country.

From the dominating orchid-covered mountains and ancient jungles of the north to the secluded, coral-ringed tropical islands of the south, the terrain is consistently spectacular. As are the 31,000 ornate wats, Buddhist temples that have played a pivotal role in the development of Thai society, art, and morality since they first began to appear in the 10th century. One of the main attractions of a visit to Chiang Rai - the most northerly province in Thailand - for example, is the possibility of spending time with one of the resident hill tribes, whose skilled hands can quickly create a bespoke tailored silk suit or dress.

Today, the constitutional monarchy embraces a wealth of cultures and traditions and a stay here leaves you in no doubt as to why it’s known as 'the land of smiles.'
