The Thailand Tourism Festival, taking place from today until Sunday, will showcase the landmarks and cultural heritage of the five regions of the country.
“All under one single venue, the event is a centre stage for a harmonious mix of Thai cultures and quintessential Thai ways of life from the North, South, East, Central, and Northeast,” said Yuthasak Supasorn, TAT governor.
“Here, tourists and travelers can come to find inspirations for their next trips to explore Thailand.”
Zone 1 of the festival will feature the authority’s “12 Hidden Gems Plus” campaign, highlighting several off-the-beaten-track destinations for seasoned travelers. An old-style movie theater will also play inspirational films.
