A person can go scuba diving or play golf in many other areas of the world besides Thailand. So what can you experience only in Thailand? For starters, Thai dancing is beautiful art form that takes a great deal of training to master. In fact, mothers massage the hands of their young daughters for years in order to prepare them for this exquisite art form. The Rose Garden outside of Bangkok features Thai dancing as well as many of the nicer restaurants, especially in resort areas. If dancing is not your thing, maybe Thai boxing will be the thrill you are seeking. The sport combines traditional boxing with karate-like kicks. Matches can be found in Hua Hin, Bangkok, Chiang Mai and other cities. The front desk at a hotel can help you find out where you can enjoy Thai- boxing. Thai massage is a medical therapy that involves “kneading” of the muscles and stretching of the joints. Such therapists are carefully trained, with the leading place for study being Wat Pho. Finally, Thai cuisine is some of the best food in the world. The combinations of sweet, spicy, and hot will amaze your taste buds. Simple restaurants on the street and elegant pricey restaurants can both offer an unforgettable dining experience. As mentioned above, cooking schools can be found in tourist areas for those who want to learn to cook Thai food for their selves.
