It is in easy walking distance from the Grand Palace.  Each year during the month of November, Wat Saket is host to a sacred pilgrimage. During the pilgrimage the villagers begin the climb to the top of the hill at an unusual cematary and them climb the 300 steps to the top.

Exploring Thailand's Jungles

Adventurers of all ages will not want to miss out on taking one of the many jungle treks. The jungle is a colorful place that is always alive with a huge number of species of wildlife. You will have the opportunity to hear and see the many birds and animals of the jungle in their own habit. There is nothing in the world that is comparable. 

 The Good Luck Of A Mahout And His Elephant In Kanchanaburi Thailand.

 Fish Spa Pedicure In Thailand. "Nibble~Nibble" 

Are you ready to let skin eating fish give you a pedicure? You will find these little shops throughout the city.  The fish are hungry, are you ready?

<p> Bartering On The Damnoen Saduak Floating River Market In Thailand  

There are five floating markets throughout Thailand, but Damnoen Saduak is best known and is the most touristy. The other four are smaller and usually serve the local population in less traveled areas of the country. This is a piece of the unique history of Thailand, that with modern shopping malls and markets, has been slowly ceasing to be part of the new modern Thailand. 

Thailand is an unique country and still has the uniqueness of yesterday alive in today's world. When traveling, be sure to reach out and touch the past and the present as you travel this beautiful and unique country. The time is ripe for a Thailand adventure. Are you ready?
