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 is better known for its tranquility. Idyllic palm beaches in the south, on the island of Phuket and national park Ko Phi Phi invite visitors to explore a tropical jungle paradise that attracts visitors with exotic flora and fauna, and the mountainous north is a paradise for climbers and adventurers. However, the most fascinating feature of Thailand is its culture, which cannot be reduced to colourful temples, magical and mysterious ruins, and tasty curries, but rather finds expression in the wisdom of its national religion - Buddhism.
