Thailand NFT experience to encourage tourists to explore
Thailand has launched “Amazing Thailand NFTs”, an NFT experience for tourists visiting the country. Officially established by the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT), the NFTs will encourage people to discover major cultural landmarks across the Southeast Asian country. To claim these NFTs, people need to travel to these five locations, which include the old town in Samut Prakan and other locations. There are 3,999 NFTs at each location, and participants have until December 14th to collect them.
The amazing Thailand NFT experience is here!
Thailand is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, with over 35 million people visiting each year. The country has remarkable beaches, brilliant cuisine, historic temples and a vibrant nightlife.
In fact, it’s a destination on every traveler’s wish list! Tourism is a huge industry, and this is yet another example of how web3 technology helps to connect people and places in various ways.
Now the country is using NFTs to help people explore some of its most important cultural sites and gain a deeper understanding of the nation’s history. There are five places to visit where you can collect amazing NFTs. The locations are China Town, Siam Square, the old town of Samut Prakan, Wat Arun and the Giant Swing.
Mr. Yuthasak Supasorn, TAT Governor, said: “This Amazing Thailand NFT brings our NFT products – Nature to keep, Food to explore, and Thainess to discover – into actual travel and offers new experiences in line with the “Visit Thailand Year 2022-2023: Amazing New Chapters” campaign . The initiative is also part of the effort to create a “new tourism ecosystem” towards a more sustainable industry.”
How to collect NFTs
Participants must download the YAKS application on Android or iOS and scan the QR code available at each location to collect the NFTs. Furthermore, there are also NFTs to unlock at Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport.
There is also a gaming element to the Amazing Thailand NFTs. Because there are only 3,999 NFTs available, it’s a race to reach every site and collect each one. Finally, those who collect three NFTs can unlock deals, discounts and free experiences across the country.
The new initiative is a huge turnaround in how Thailand views web3 technology. Last year, Thailand issued new legislation banning NFT trading.
