Siam Society is holding a study trip to explore the cultural legacy of Thailand's Deep South in Pattani and Narathiwat from Aug 14-16.
This is a rare opportunity to gain a deeper appreciation of the history, heritage and cultural richness of the two provinces that occupy a unique position at the crossroads of the Thai, Malay, Islamic, Chinese and wider maritime worlds.
For centuries, these lands formed part of a vibrant network of trade and cultural exchange linking the kingdoms of mainland Southeast Asia with the Indian Ocean and the South China Sea.
