Looks a nice route, may check it out when I'm back in Thailand soon. I've enjoyed going to the northeast, near to Laos, interesting and friendly. You're right the mass tourist areas get annoying, rudeness from foreigners and Thais abound there sadly, big contrast to the rest of the country where people are generally welcoming, kind and friendly.

I plan to travel back to Issan as soon as possible to continue the series in that area. Thailand is changing rapidly and sadly not for the better more of these areas will be ruined once the foreigners invade. Thankfully the majority of places I visit are considered boring for most . Places like Hua Hin , Chiang Mai city, and Phuket are so over rated and phony in my opinion. Thank you so much for leaving a comment.

Unlike the northern and southern routes that in my opinion much of the landscape is now ruined by dozens of huge cement overpasses and huge new stations in the middle of nowhere. This portion of Issan during the rainy and cold season is still very nice for the time being. In summer looks like the mid-west of America mostly flat and barren. Thankfully most of the fast train route breaks off in another direction. One section I saw from a distance you could see for miles. What Thai or foreigner is going to be able to afford riding that train? The train from Buriram to Bang Sue station in Bangkok is 99 baht and takes about six hours. Once you get past Korat towards Singburi area it looks like something out of a si-fi movie is all I will say. Make sure you give a LIKE if you enjoyed the program and thanks for making an effort to leave a comment.
