![]() ThailandThe Mekong flows from Thailand's top -- the Golden Triangle where Myanmar, Laos and Thailand touch -- to its northeast border, an area steeped in the stories of history.Thailand is a land of green, the lush hills streams of its north where hilltribes live. It is also gold, as reflected in the temples of Chaing Mai and the old Royal City in Bangkok. The brown sandstone of the temples of Khymer culture color the countryside in northeast Thailand. Thailand, often called the "Land of Smiles" because its people have a tendency to do just that, literally means "Land of the Free". As an established tourism destination, Thailand has something for every taste plus surprises for even the most sophisticated traveler.
