For veteran travellers, a good thing about hitting the road is always to find a new hidden gem. This is to go out off the beaten track, pioneer your own routes, and seek and unveil for the first time, a brand new itinerary to claim your own.
For most people, Thailand is well-associated with a good array of key destinations. You have known it all - the names of the popular provinces in the North, South south, and all other regions. But what about the small wonders, most hidden away, still best-kept secrets, treasures on the fringes? This book is hoping to give you a glimpse of what much more our Kingdom has to offer.
From North to South, and from East to West, many marginalised small towns prove to contain big time amazements. A lost village that proved to be even more ancient than Sukhothai. A folkloric community that applies the nearby volcanic soil to dye their cotton. What about a laid-back village where its savvy people spin the glossy silk threads from an alternative moth? There are always things to wonder and appreciate. The more you travel, the more you see. And this is a good time to trek away, delightfully, from the known paths, and explore the hidden beauties of it all.
