The 5 administrative Regions
The 7 touristic Regions  
The administration of Thailand divides Thailand into 5 Regions where the capital of Bangkok belongs to the Central Region










--The mountainous North


-- The historic Center
-- The Northeast (Isarn)
-- Greater Bangkok
-- The West
-- The East Coast


-- The South beginning with Phetchaburi
For touristic descriptions we divide Thailand into 7 Regions which derive from their geography and their historic past

The 77 Provinces of Thailand
Thailand has 77 provinces (Changwat), of which about 53 are of major interest to foreign tourists. Among these are all 9 provinces of the North and all 16 provinces in the South. 
All provinces have the same name as the provincial capital which is called Amphoe Mueang to distinguish them.

Each province is subdivided into 4 to 32 districts (Amphoe), totaling 878 districts in all of Thailand. In addition there are 50 districts of Bangkok, which are called Khet. 

A district consists of several towns (Tambon), consisting of villages (Mu Ban). A single village is called Ban. The village remains the social home of each Thai person, even if he works in the distance. 

In the near future: 
We shall present touristic attractions in all 77 provinces of Thailand 
During the next 2 years the t-Globe-Team will endeavour to discover even the most subtle tourist attractions in the less traveled provinces and will be happy to present them on this website. 
A successful start has been made with our high-class t-Globe Thailand Travel Magazine, whose first editions are presented on the website www.issuu.com/tglobe  in English and Thai language to be read online and printed out on your printer, if you like.
