Bangkok--21 May--TAT Inter PR Division
The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) recently launched its own travel documentary series, titled 'Insight Thainess', to promote Thai values through the country's unique way of life. The seven-part series highlights Thai local wisdom, time-honoured arts and crafts, history and natural resources, and is meant to inspire travellers worldwide to visit Thailand and experience it first-hand.
Two of the seven episodes were uploaded recently on TAT's official public relations channel, or the TAT Newsroom. The first episode, titled 'Mango with Sticky Rice', premiered in March and was filmed in Amphawa, Samut Songkhram, a small province in Central Thailand. It featured local communities that live a simple lifestyle from farming and fruit orchards, mostly coconuts, pomelos, lychees and mangos.

Episode two, titled 'The Riviera of the Salt Field' premiered early May with a 'roadside travel' storyline. It was filmed in Ban Laem, Phetchaburi where the numerous salt fields create a snow white effect on the horizon.
