Recommended Tourist Activities In Thailand

For those who’re interested in sports, there’s plenty of scope to indulge in fishing, scuba diving, surfing, snorkelling, sailing and golf. But if you’d rather restrict yourself to watching sports, you have the option of watching events like the horse races at Bangkok, the car/motorcycle races at Pattaya, or typically Thai sports like takro (a ball game), traditional Thai boxing, kite flying (which usually takes place during March and April, and is a `battle of the sexes’- with the `male’ Chula kite and the `female’ Pakpao kite trying to outdo each other). Traditional Thai boat races also take place on the rivers; the most well known of these races are held near Bangkok.
