Thailand – "Country of Liberty" – has every right to its name, as it is the only southeast Asian country never to have been ruled by a western colonial power. It is also a country full of contrasts - aside from Bangkok, that lively metropolis which today lies enveloped in the fumes of unrestrained traffic, Thailand as a country is better known for its tranquility, beauty and very friendly inhabitants. Idyllic palm beaches in the south, on the island of Phuket and Ko Phi Phi National Park, visitors are invited to explore a tropical jungle paradise filled with exotic flora and fauna. Thailand‘s mountainous north is a paradise for climbers and adventurers. However, the most fascinating feature of Thailand is its culture, which cannot be reduced to just colourful temples, magical and mysterious ruins and tasty food, but rather finds expression in the wisdom of its national religion... Buddhism.
