Top 10 Things to Do in Thailand

The Land of Smiles, Thailand is a true paradise on Earth. The rich cultural heritage, incredible landscapes, and the ethereal mixture of vivid natural beauty and the buzz of metropolitan crowds can make deciding what to do in Thailand a little tricky. There is more to Thailand than just the top attractions. So, if Thailand is the next thing on your bucket list, here is a guide to 10 top attractions you cannot miss out on.

 

  1.  The Floating Markets

If you have already been researching things to do in Thailand, then the floating markets might already be familiar. One of Thailand’s top attractions, Bangkok’s floating markets offer you everything from a chance to mingle with the locals and experience the traditional way of life to gorging yourself full of exotic fruits and delectable street food– all aboard a beautiful longtail boat. While Damnoen Saduak is the most popular floating market, the Amphawa Floating Market or the lesser-known Taling Chan could be a more authentic experience.

 

  1. Night Markets of Chiang Mai

Before telling you what to do in Thailand, consider this question– do you love to shop? If the answer is yes, then the night markets of Chiang Mai could be the retail experience of a lifetime for you. The hundreds of stalls in the popular Sunday Walking Street Bazaar here offer anything from massage zones and street food to handmade textiles and essential oils!

 

  1. The Old City of Sukhothai

Admiring the beauty of Thailand often leads to this inevitable question– where did it all begin? And of course, one of the things to do in Thailand is to find the answer to this in Sukhothai, the birthplace of Thai architecture, art, and language. While its counterpart Ayutthaya attracts far more visitors than Sukhothai, it still ranks as one of the most significant sites in Thai history.

 

  1. Thai National Parks

Thailand is home to numerous beautiful national parks. Of all these, visiting the Khao Yai National Park is one of the best things to do in Thailand as it is one of Asia’s largest intact monsoon forests and a World Heritage Site. This park is equally fun for adventurers and nature lovers. Prepare yourself to see some diverse wildlife when you visit, including the revered Asian Elephants.

 

  1. Phang Nga Bay

What Thai vacation is complete without spending time in the ocean? Phang Nga Bay, located in the Andaman Sea, is a natural wonder of limestone cliffs and glorious marine life. To the beach lovers’ query about what to do in Thailand, we say Phang Nga Bay for sure. Explore the caves, go sea kayaking, or just relax on the sand and take in the beauty of Thailand.

 

  1. Take Thai Cuisine Home

Going back home from your vacation would inevitably make you miss the delectable Thai dishes you savored. But what if you could take it home from Chiang Mai? The culturally rich Chiang Mai is popular for its vibrant dining scene as well. And the best part? You can choose to go to a local cooking school here and enjoy Thai delicacies long after your trip.

 

  1. Authentic Thai Massages

Thai massages are popular in spas throughout the world. But none of them will compare to the authentic experience you can have right in its birthplace. Nuad Boran or the Thai yoga massage is a traditional therapy that combines acupressure, Ayurvedic principles, and assisted yoga poses. The best way to unwind after a long day of adventure in Thailand!

 

  1. The Grand Palace

The Grand Palace has been one of the most popular attractions in Bangkok since 1782. The official residence of the Siam royalty, this palace is even grander than you would expect. Located by the banks of the river Chao Phraya, this palace is the epitome of the Thai eye for beauty. Don’t forget to visit the Temple of the Emerald Buddha (Wat Phra Kaew) when you are here.

 

  1. The Thai-Burma Death Railway

As the name suggests, this activity is not for the faint-hearted. This notorious two-hour train journey starts from Kanchanaburi and continues via the River Kwai bridge to Nam Tok. Although the journey is one of the most beautiful in Thailand, the tragic past behind the construction of this track can make your heart break. Over a hundred thousand laborers died between 1942 and 1943, amidst the construction of this bridge.

 

  1. The Full Moon Party

If you want to know what to do in Thailand with a group of friends who want to have fun, there is nothing better than the Full Moon Party at Haad Rin. From a small disco that hosted less than 100 people in 1985, the Full Moon Party now draws a crowd of many thousands to Ko Pha Ngan. Don’t worry if your trip doesn’t fall during the full moon– you can enjoy the Half Moon, Black Moon, or Shiva Moon party at the same location.

 

There are more things to do in Thailand than you can fit into a lifetime. But making the most of your vacation with these unmissable top attractions can give you the best taste of this beautiful destination. Hope we have given you answers about what to do in Thailand. Now all you have to do is book the right Thailand tour package from Akbar Travels and enjoy the real Thailand without any hassle of planning. Ready?
