Things To Do<\/h2>\n

You could go for classic Thai dishes like Massaman curry and Pad Thai. However, if you\u2019re reading this, you\u2019re probably not looking to do things by the guidebook!<\/p>\n

Thailand is home to some of the most impressively odd food in the world, some of which may turn your stomach. Or in the case of Goong Ten (literally means \u201cdancing shrimp\u201d), may continue to turn in your stomach. You never know, you might come home with a newfound fondness for deep-fried crickets!<\/p>\n

Ever rowed through a busy canal to get your grocery shopping done? The Damnoen Saduak<\/a> floating markets are famous for providing the very best of Thai wares, all being sold on longtail boats by local vendors. Everything from traditional food and clothing to wonderfully tacky souvenirs make the often chaotic markets a photographer\u2019s dream. You won\u2019t even need an Instagram filter to make this place look special!<\/p>\n

Now considered a movie classic, The Beach<\/em> starring Leonardo DiCaprio was filmed on the island of Phi Phi Leh<\/strong>.\u00a0If you thought it looked good on the silver screen, just wait till you see what it looks like up close.<\/p>\n

Where To Stay<\/h2>\n
