02 TREASURE PRODUCTS Thailand oﬀers visitors a rich assortment of UNESCO World Heritage Sites and historic treasures Among Thailand’s major visitor draws are the country’s cultural attractions, including awe-inspiring UNESCO World Heritage Sites, historical and religious sites and numerous museums. Here’s a list of the kinds of sights you’ll be able to include in your Thai vacation: historical parks, archaeological sites, royal palaces and residences, throne halls, stone sanctuaries, monuments, heroic shrines, cemeteries, forts, city walls and gates, and city moats. When visitors take the time to seek out such sights, they’ll collect a set of experiences that deepen their knowledge and understanding of the history and archaeology of Thailand.

The house is now a museum displaying Thompson’s collection of Thai and Asian antiques. Jim Thompson is something of a legend. He came to CENTRAL THAILAND & BANGKOK Bangkok was founded in 1782 by the ﬁrst monarch of the present Chakri dynasty. Visitors to Bangkok would be remiss if they didn’t make an excursion to Bangkok’s Rattanakosin area (also called Rattanakosin Island, although it’s been incorporated into the city) on the western side of the city.
