Solo Traveling in Thailand

Phuket is a historical old town on an island, and an excellent destination for solo traveling in Thailand. It has fantastic scenery and iconic attractions, such as the Big Buddha. Plan a visit to islands such as Phang Nga Bay, Phi Phi islands, and Similan islands, among others. If you want a night out on the town, visit Bangla Road's nightlife and the night markets. Carry your swimming gear, and experience some of the best beaches in the whole of Thailand.

The capital city of Thailand is a traveler's dream. Get cultural experiences at Wat Pho (home to the reclining Buddha), Bangkok National Museum, and the Grand Palace. Shop at Chatuchak Market and Siam Paragon. Make time for a Thai massage, enjoy a drink at Nana Plaza, and eat at China Town.

If you want to understand the culture of Thailand, you must visit Krabi. Shop at the night markets, experience a Thai massage, visit the tiger temple, relax, or explore the caves at Rai Leh beach. Rai Leh offers a hiker's paradise with stunning views. The Thung Teao Forest Natural Park has a wide range of fauna and flora and you can take a dip at the Emerald Pool. Other must-visit places include Wat Tham Sua, a collection of caves and a natural wonder in Thailand. If you want a local Thai feel, make sure you visit Krabi town, which has managed to maintain its authenticity.

If you are a history buff, you will enjoy Surin. You will get to see Khmer ruins, Prasat Ta Meuan, among others. Plan your visit for the yearly elephant roundup where the majestic creatures play football, and the locals reenact battle scenes. Other places to visit are the Surin city pillar shrine, The National Museum, and Chong Chom market for a bit of shopping

Pattaya is the party center of Thailand. Its nightlife's history dates back to the Vietnam War, when the American GIs would spend their time here. You get a wide variety of entertainment, including go-go bars, massage parlors, and a wide array of bars and nightclubs. Make sure you check out the Alcazar Cabaret show, enjoy the underwater world and Ramayana water park. The botanical garden is a fantastic peaceful place to relax.
