Thailand

Thailand, officially   the Kingdom of Thailandand, is a country in Southeast Asia with coasts on the Andaman Sea and the Gulf of Thailand. It borders Myanmar (Burma)   to the northwest, Laos to the northeast, Cambodia to the southeast and Malaysia to the south. Northern Thailand: Chiang Mai,   hill tribes, and the Golden Triangle. Thailand can be   conveniently divided into five geographic and cultural regions:

1. Isaan: The great northeast region. Get off the beaten track and discover back country Thailand, mouthwatering food, and some   magnificent Khmer ruins.

2. Southern Thailand: Lush rainforest, hundreds of km of coastline and   countless islands on both the Andaman Sea and the Gulf of Thailand, plus Phuket, Chumphon, Krabi, Ko Samui, Ko Tao and more of Thailand's famous beach spots.

3. Eastern Thailand: Beaches and islands within easy reach of Bangkok,   like Pattaya, Ko Samet and Ko Chang.

4. Central Thailand: Bangkok,   lowlands and historic Thailand.

It is   the 20th-most-populous   country in the world, with around 69 million people. It is   also one of the most popular country in the travel’s list, with great food, a   tropical climate, fascinating culture, majestic mountains   and great beaches

Mainland Thai culture is heavily influenced by Buddhism. Thailand's Buddhists   follow the Theravada school, which is arguably closer to its Indian roots and   places a heavier emphasis on monasticism.
