From the guidebook

A taste of what is inside

Spend a day on Koh Larn, the postcard island a short boat ride across the bay, with white sand, clear water, and fire shows once the day-trippers have gone home. Stand inside the Sanctuary of Truth, a 105-meter teak temple-palace built without a single nail. Then eat your way through a night market: a dozen small dishes, a plastic stool, and a feast for the price of one meal back home.

That is a small slice. The full guide gives you the honest local take on each spot, plus ready-made day itineraries that string the best of it together.
