Thailand is a kingdom where Buddhism meets hedonism. Party on palm-fringed beaches, shop till you drop in Bangkok, and discover the wats and temples of Thonburi, erstwhile capital of ancient Siam. Footprint's fully revised and updated seventh edition takes travelers off the beaten path--whether they fancy trekking in the north or finding their very own little piece of paradise on the islands in the south--while providing all the essentials on where to eat, sleep, drink, and party.
