Unseen Thailand

Cultural City Paradise

Pimalai Resort & Spa 

krabi

A rare resort whose architecture has been designed entirely around the natural contours and lush vegetation of over 100 acres and a 900-meter private beach. The elegantly-designed pool villas set high in the verdant hillside, allow you to indulge in nature. From here, you will see the enchanting reality of thousands of years: virgin forest enveloping steep, flowered hills climbing up to a blue sky.

The tranquility, the abundance of flora, the exquisite views, the fiery sunsets, all combine to maximize the sensation of being in Nirvana. Indeed, the name “Pimalai” translates as “heavenly”. Enjoy an intimate, romantic dinner on your terrace, sip champagne while dipping in your pool, or perhaps enjoy a soothing massage in your sala… Live, laugh, love and indulge in moments that will be remembered long after the holiday.

Cultural


UNESCO World Heritage 

SUKHOTHAI










Sukhothai, capital of the first Kingdom of Siam, has an abundance of monuments, brilliantly illustrating the early development of Thai architecture. This early civilization absorbed numerous influences and ancient local traditions. The rapid assimilation of all these elements forged into what is known as the “Sukhothai style”.

AYUTTHAYA
In 1350, Ayutthaya became the second Siamese capital but was destroyed by the Burmese in the 18th century. Its remains, characterized by eye-catching prang (reliquary towers) and gigantic monasteries, allow visitors to easily appreciate the scale of the city’s past splendor.


BAN CHIANG, UDON THANI 
Ban Chiang (1192) is considered the most important prehistoric settlement in South-East Asia. 

It marks an important stage in human cultural, social and technological evolution. The site presents the earliest evidence of farming in the region and of the manufacture and use of metals.

 In addition to cultural and historical sites, Thai food, dance performance, arts and crafts and indeed a laid-back art of living are aspects of culture which visitors can experience every day





UNSEEN TEMPLES  





1. Sirindhorn Wararam Phu-Prao, Ubon Ratchathani
An enchanting temple with great views. Recommended to visit during the evening when the light on the temple is on and see the gorgeous shining tree ceramic decorated temple wall and beautiful grounds. Breathtaking views of the mountains looking towards Laos.

2. Phu Kon Forest Temple, Udon Ratchathani 

This temple circumscribes nearly 400 acres of lush forest, and as a result, is a tranquil locale for Buddhist meditation practice. Located next to the temple is a stupa (also known as a pagoda) named Prathom Rattana Mahaburaphachan Chedi, where holy Buddhist relics are believed to be enshrined. The stupa was built in the Lanka style, is 25 meters high and is decorated with golden mosaics.

3. Heart Miracle Island, Sukhothai 

The Holy Heart Island in Sukhothai looks just like any other island on a lake, but fly over and you will see it is shaped like a heart. The island itself was built with earth donated by people from all 843 villages in Sukhothai. On the island is a Siri Sukhothai Buddha image and shrine.

4. Prajomklao Rachanusorn Tempe, Lampang 

Off the beaten track and a journey to and up the mountain an hour+ from Chiang Mai, here is a site that hasn’t been ruined by tourist hoards. On Pu Yak mountain in the Chae Hom district of Lampang, it encapsulates serenity with a sweeping mountain view

Natural





Plumeria Tunnel at Nan Museum, Nan 

Plumeria Tunnel, in front of Nan National Museum, is another nearby fascinating tourist destination. Tourists’ smile and pose.

 Road of Yellow Trumpet Tree, Suphanburi

Yellow trumpet trees line Highway 3502 in Suphan Buri province. Beautiful flowers never fail to fascinate. Besides the country’s landscaped gardens, there are many scenic routes and places in Thailand where you can visit to admire floral beauty. Quite often, the flowers in the wilderness or along the roads, look much livelier and impressive than those in neatly-trimmed gardens.
