Central Thailand

The historical heartland of Thailand — this is where the great kingdoms that still shape the country today were born. From the UNESCO World Heritage ruins of Ayutthaya and Sukhothai to the infamous Bridge on the River Kwai, Thailand's most beautiful waterfall, a world-class national park, and the royal seaside resort of Hua Hin. Central Thailand is the perfect complement to Bangkok and the beaches in the south — and is completely overlooked by most tourists.
