One of the major economic factors in the Kingdom of Thailand is tourism. For the convenience of the foreign visitors, the Thai government established a separate tourism police in all the major tourist areas and its own central emergency telephone number. Thailand has been receiving increased competition ever since Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia opened up to international tourism.
Thailand offers a great variety of attractions that include diving sites, sandy beaches, hundreds of tropical islands, varied night-life, archaeological sites, museums, exceptional flora and bird life, palaces and World Heritage sites. Many tourists follow courses such as Thai cooking, traditional massage and Buddhism during their stay in Thailand.
