Key stopovers to discover in Thailand
In Thailand, a stopover in Laem Chabang, a port in Chonburi province, allows you to explore the Thai capital, Bangkok, which is an hour away by car. Situated on the banks of the Chao Phraya River, Bangkok is a city steeped in history and rich in cultural heritage. Among its must-see attractions are Vimanmek Palace, the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, and Wat Pho, renowned for its enormous reclining Buddha, 15 meters high and 45 meters long. To truly appreciate the city’s charm, a visit to Klongsuan Market is highly recommended.
Several Thai islands are also included in Southeast Asian cruise itineraries, including Koh Samui. This tropical island in the Gulf of Thailand is the main island of the Ang Thong archipelago. Its main port is located in the town of Nathon. A favorite destination for those who love to relax and swim, the island boasts numerous beaches, including Chaweng Beach and Lamai Beach on the east coast. Less touristy, the beaches of Maenam and Choeng Mon are also very beautiful. For a pleasant cultural outing, visit the Khunaram Temple, about a 20-minute drive from Nathon Port.
