You know all about its beautiful beaches, Buddhist temples, exotic wildlife, fascinating history and unique culture that make the country plenty affable. In this blog, we\u2019re going to ramble on some lesser known facts that might hopefully make the \u2018Land of Smiles\u2019 even more popular. Here is the proof (both tangible and intangible) to back it up.<\/div>\n<div class=\"blogwrapperblk\">\n<h2 id=\"section-1\">Interesting Facts About Thailand<\/h2>\n<p><strong>1)\u00a0Pleases the palate immensely<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/blog\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Thai-Curry.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2472\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/blog\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Thai-Curry.jpg\" alt=\"Thai Curry - Thailand\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re the sort that likes curries, Thai food will leave you deliriously happy. It\u2019s profusion of flavours and fragrances are quite sensational. No wonder it is a coveted cuisine all over the world! \u00a0Had a rough day at work? Order Thai food. Fight with a friend? Order Thai. Pregnant woman cravings? Thai food.\u00a0 Any type of cravings? You know what to do.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2) The taste of freedom<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One of the things about Thailand is that there are no hard and fast rules. You can pretty much do as you please, smoke at the cinemas, restaurants, footpaths. But here is the paradox: despite the freedom that people are generously given on a silver platter; they choose to be responsible, conscientious citizens. We think it\u2019s a carefully planned strategic move by the government. Because people always like to do the opposite of what\u2019s told. Shrewd thinking, policy makers of Thailand!<\/p>\n<p><strong>3) Chaos and inner peace<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/blog\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Bangkok-City.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2474\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/blog\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Bangkok-City.jpg\" alt=\"Bangkok-City\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This country juggles two parallel, highly contradictory concepts, namely chaos and inner peace in the most natural, unsurprising way. We cannot think of a better example than the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/blog\/\/top-6-must-see-attractions-bangkok\/\">Bangkok<\/a> traffic to highlight this assertion. The maddening traffic progresses in the most orderly chaos. No horns tooting, no one hurling abuses&#8230;it\u2019s a peaceful mess, if such a thing exists.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Suggested read :\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/blog\/\/top-30-places-to-visit-in-bangkok\/\">Top 30 Places To Visit In Bangkok<\/a><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>4) Cheap Living<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You can get a maid, eat well, and get massages without making a dent in your pocket.
