City
The capital of Thailand is famous for its contradictions. The nation's jungle will both enchant and shock you in many ways. The "Venice of the East", a moniker given to the city thanks to its many canals and the Chao Praya River that runs through it, is known for its heavy traffic (even through elevated multi-level highways), crowded streets, but also for the oases of tranquility that can be found in one of the city's parks or in as many as 300…

Hua Hin is more of a resort for Thais heading here for weekends from concrete Bangkok. For you, it will be an ideal stopover when wandering on between Bangkok and the south of the country. Here you will find the oldest and perfectly preserved railway station with a royal saloon, beautiful national parks, vineyards and several kilometres of coastline, which, however, is not the idyllic thing to expect from Thailand.

In a day, the aura of this historically significant place can be perfectly absorbed, for example, by bicycle. And why significant? It was here that the beginning of the history of the Thai nation was written long before Siam itself came into being.
