Waterfalls

Water is the first among the 4 Great elements, from which all the Being was created. Water is the main component of our body and most of other forms of life. So each of us - living creatures - is a permanent participant in the global game of Water Cycle. In addition to drinking, the water flows in and out us throw the nose and mouth while breathing, and also by every mm of our skin. Waterfalls located in a National parks, where the water coming from the mountains through  various mount crystals and minerals.  That's why bathing in waterfalls are so  good for all 3 of our health:  body, mind and soul ! To make the visit to the waterfall even more useful -  take a bottle of water from the waterfall and drink it after boiling on fire (gas) in a tea, coffee or other hot drink.

Temples, ancient remains
​and other religious places 

​ Although many of the temples located in a unique scenic spots, we posting them  here on a website not as a tourist destinations - rather it is a guide for one's spiritual journey. Also that temples are the holy bricks of the body of our inner online temple. Then noticed, that visiting the temples can give to someone a reasons  to learn  the traditions and stories of winning paths of of human spirit deeper. At same time, we see that groups of curious tourists in a big buses with cameras usually distracting monks from their real duties, what, with a right consideration, is very unfavorable for all of us. Religion here, as in common, based on 2 important principles - faith in fully unlighted Buddha, and faith in Sangha - community of monks (bhikku's), which achieving the Nibbana, following the chosen path.

History and culture

Both history & culture have always been deeply connected with religion, which allowed them to lasts so long, until even nowadays. The religion  itself however changing, according to defined cycles and appearances of those who achieved its final state-destination. So now in Nakhon Si Thammarat festivals you can be lucky to see play-scenes with Rama & Hanuman from "Ramayana" ("Ramakien") in Nang Talung Shadow play, tradition, continuing with Nora dance,  joining to celebration of Hae Nang Dan Festival, dedicated to god Shiva. Plus all the rest, when participating  the events from the Buddhist  Festivals Calendar, which unites forms of arts from all previous eras, including very ancient ones, which now even hard to associate with exact time and tradition.

Old names of Nakhon Si Thammarat

The history of lands goes deep into the Time, and all that time it were the Names, names, names...
     One of the "central" name is Ligor - Ligor still remains in city, as most popular chain of bakeries, in names of hotels and in other names. Tambralinga, or Tamraliptu was repeatedly mentioned in  Mahabharata and other ancient Vedic texts, where one of the most interesting source is "Kathasaritsagara" (or "Ocean of Tales") of Somadeva. Those old names are the most recognizable.  Third renowned less - its  ancient name Amarutthani, exists approx 4,500 years ago, It was  in a times of  worship to God Indra - Heavenly father of many Royal dynasties  around the World in era of Great Warriors - Time of Heroes.  (Amaruvati is a Indra capital with its great and amazing Palace - Pushkaramalini).

Story
     We come to NakhonSi for a couple of days, which then were extended to a weeks, months and years, First idea was to make a  local travel-portal, which will be sample model for other hidden  soulful "no-tourist" destination. The plan is simple, that It should be:

• run by  local people, or with their close assistance. Among them - not just an involved members of tourist business, but  those who  know the place well, loves it and can convert the collected knowledge  into ready-to-publish information -  text, photos and videos, with private opinions like "who they want to meet?" and "What they want to share with travelers  - guests of their homeland?". 
• contains best in area - here in  Nakhon Si Thammarat - resorts and hotels,  supported by installed online booking, which is by our plan should be managed by hoteliers themselves, directly.
•  supported and updated with all the useful web-features and additional tourist services, specific to the chosen area, such as interactive map, online services or forms.  

-  and TambralingaDotcom was created, where most of mentioned functions were already installed. Then, while we learn, test and improve it, in the new rhythm we made this NakhonSi.Info website. Even its beginning gives us easiness, pleasure and extra-energies to visit some of our favorite sights again - now we wish it to be shared and going to continue with same feeling!

      Its supposed to be a photo-portal, but also with the option to book online best accommodation in Nakhon Si Thammarat - in a little future.  Then we found that its better to add a few words to the pictures of place we love - there are many of places we love around NakhonSi. Most of them located far from the city and tourist areas and to  make your visit there more complete and real its good to know something in advance. ​Keeping all of that here are our intention: we'll do our best to make it useful for you - reader, and exiting for both of us. Otherwise we will not do nothing - you can notice it when its happens. However wise man once said that  "poem is never finished; it is only abandoned", and this concept of Nakhon SI Thammarat travel portal also is not a final, which is fixed forever, and its also will be changed, relaunched and upgraded. Write us your good ideas about that.

Created under the wings of ΚΑΛΌΣ Fund -its destinations includes light & fire-painting art gallery, Tree Ownership Club in Nakhon Si Thammarat,  Dozen hotels, Dozen Tours and Dozen Villas.
