The
kingdom of Thailand lies in the heart of Southeast Asia, making it a natural gateway
to Indochina, Myanmar and Southern China. Its shape and geography divide into
four natural regions : the mountains and forests of the North, the vast rice fields
of the Central Plains; the semi-arid farm lands of the Northeast plateau; and
the tropical islands and long coastline of the peninsula South. Thais are well-known
for their friendliness and hospitality. A large majority of over 62 million citizens
of Thailand are ethic Thai, along with strong communities whose ethnic origins
lie in China, India and elsewhere. About 7 million people reside in the capital
city of Bangkok. Click here >>
