Following the success of last year's Amazing Thailand NFTs project which saw tourists collect 17,118 NFTs at each of the five locations in Bangkok and Samut Prakan, Amazing Thailand NFTs Season 2 presents 24,000 NFTs available at 20 tourist attractions and landmarks across all five regions.

  In the central region -- Wat Phra Kaew, Mahanakhon Building and Asiatique The Riverfront in Bangkok; Amphawa floating market in Samut Songkhram; Hua Hin railway station in Prachuap Khiri Khan; and River Kwai Bridge in Kanchanaburi.

  In the East -- Bali Hai pier and the Sanctuary of Truth (Prasat Satchatham) in Pattaya, Chon Buri; and Laem Ngob Lighthouse in Trat.

  In the North -- Tha Phae Gate and Doi Inthanon in Chiang Mai; Wat Rong Khun in Chiang Rai; and Sukhothai Historical Park in Sukhothai.

  In the Northeast -- Wat Roi Phra Phutthabat Phu Manorom in Mukdahan; Elephant's World Project in Surin; and Sirindhorn Wararam Phu Prao Temple in Ubon Ratchathani.

  In the South -- Promthep Cape, Phuket Old Town and Mai Khao Beach in Phuket; and Khao Tapu in Phangnga.

All tourists can collect the NFTs through the YAKS application and they can check in within a 2km radius of the tourist attraction to collect them.

Each NFT is one-of-a-kind and comes in the form of a polaroid picture of the tourist attraction. The items are classified as Normal and Rare and will be stored in the tourists' digital wallets. They can be used to unlock privileges and discounts for airfare, accommodation, food and beverage, shopping and other travel offers.
