A favourite tourist destination it certainly is, but Thailand has gone all out to make every girl book a ticket to the country – to partake in some merry-making and women-centric celebrations in honour of the 84th birthday of their queen.
If Thailand had a theme song for the month of August, it would probably be the 1980s Cyndi Lauper hit, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun. And with good reason.

Thailand is the 20th-most-populous country in the world, with around 66 million people
