Buddhism is the national religion of Thailand and it is interwoven into daily life with various duties and ceremonies.  Buddhist festivals, holidays and events dominate the annual calendar and the Buddhist temple is the centre of the village often serving as a school, orphanage or meeting hall.

Modern Thailand combines traditional Buddhist culture, ancient history and traditional customs with the latest technology, political stability and diverse economy.  From the excitement of Bangkok city to the lush mountain tops to the wild jungle to the white sun-drenched beaches, Thailand is filled with scenic beauty and rich diverse culture, and justly know as the “land of smiles”.
