Thailand is a kingdom located in Southeast Asia or Indochinese peninsula to be more precise. This exotic tropical country is rich with diverse natural beauties, unmatched historical and cultural monuments, warm sea, amazing beaches, tasty cuisine, unforgettable nightlife and entertainment. An interesting fact about this beautiful country is that although it has rich history it has never been colonized.
Thailand is a leading worldwide travel power for decades now. Some of the reasons for that is the suitable climate which can be described as tropical – hot and humid. The temperatures during January are around 20 to 22 Celsius degrees (68 to 72 Fahrenheit) and during July 29 to 31 C (84 to 88 F) which makes it perfect for visiting in all seasons.
