Thailand
was known for centuries by outsiders as Siam, a country as remote as
China. Modern and predominately Buddhist, it is a Southeast Asian
kingdom in which the past and the present mingle in harmony. Emphasis is
placed on the Buddhist’s time-honored, non-confrontational approach to
life, and on the ideals of charity, tolerance, and loving kindness. Your
journey continues as you cruise the Ayeyarwady River on M/S Road to
Mandalay through the "Golden Land" of Myanmar - once known
as Burma – a country of glittering pagodas, fertile rice fields, and
peaceful monks. You board the luxury Eastern & Oriental Express
and travel southward through the ever- changing landscape of Malaysia
– mountains, rainforests, and miles of virgin coastline on your way to
the "Lion City" of Singapore.
