Southeast Asia
16th century French travelers reported that the Siamese capital, Ayutthaya, was the most beautiful city in the East, rivaling Paris itself. Their detailed accounts described Siam as a land of fabulous temples and traditions set in pleasant garden surroundings. Since then, the mention of Siam has inspired visions of a lush Far Eastern paradise...a land of great Kings and Queens, gilded palaces, complex culture and fabulous food. The truth about Siam is every bit as exotic as the fantastic accounts Westerners have related for 400 years. Siam still blends beauty, ancient traditions and tropical abundance.
