Dream Trip to Thailand - Escapades, April 6, 2019
With its turquoise waters, rich Buddhist culture, and lush flora and fauna, Thailand is one of the world's most popular tourist destinations. The kingdom is currently caught between the boom of modernization and the desire to preserve centuries-old traditions. Tiga travels to the "Land of Smiles," which maintains and promotes its history and culture while adapting to Western customs.
In this episode:
A new path for tourism
Traditional boats, the heart of Thai identity
Gibbons, iconic Thai monkeys
The Nang Talung, a shadow puppet show
The art of getting around Bangkok
Aboard the East and Oriental Express
Sophie Jovillard, Tiga, Ismaël Khelifa, and Jérôme Pitorin take turns every Saturday at 8:50 pm on France 5 to help you discover beautiful and far-flung getaways.
