"ชาติ ศาสนา พระมหากษัตริย์; Chat, Satsana, Phra Mahakasat" ("Nation, Religion, King")

Thailand is home to the world’s largest solid gold Buddha statue.

The statue, known as the Golden Buddha or Phra Phuttha Maha Suwana Patimakon, weighs over 5.5 tons and is located in Bangkok's Wat Traimit Temple.

Thailand is the only Southeast Asian country never to have been colonized by a European power.

Its name, “Thailand,” means “land of the free,” and it has proudly maintained its sovereignty throughout history.

Bangkok's full ceremonial name is the longest place name in the world.

The full name of Bangkok, given by King Rama I, is 169 characters long, highlighting the city's importance and grandeur.
