What should I pay attention to when traveling to Thailand with a group for the first time?

Matters needing attention in traveling to Thailand:

1, Thai law stipulates that smoking is strictly prohibited in public places. If necessary, you need to find a special smoking room. When booking a hotel room, please indicate that you need to stay in the smoking room. So pay attention to where you smoke.

2. Pay attention to respect local customs, members of the Thai royal family and Buddhist etiquette. The royal family in Thailand is especially revered and respected. Please be polite in front of the portraits of the king that can be seen everywhere, don't point with your fingers, and pay attention to your words. In Thailand, you must not discuss the topic of king and royal family with others, which may violate the law.

3. When cycling or driving in Thailand, drive on the left, don't drive in the middle of the road, and don't stop at will. When riding a motorcycle, you must wear a helmet and obey the local traffic laws to avoid accidents.

Every day at 8:00 and 18:00, the national anthem of Thailand will be played in many public places, and all Thais who hear the national anthem will stand still and stop everything at hand to show their respect. Before watching a movie in the cinema, there will be a piece of music to commemorate the king of Thailand. All the staff will stand up to pay tribute. Please stand up.

Please pay attention to dress when visiting the temple. Don't be too exposed. No suspenders or sleeveless skirts. Skirts or trousers need to be above the knee. You must take off your shoes before entering the Buddhist temple, but you can walk around the Buddhist temple without taking off your shoes. Don't step on the threshold, don't climb the courtyard wall or stupa. Some temples prohibit photographing Buddha statues, so you need to pay attention to the signs.

Extended data:

1. In Thailand, pay attention to respecting Buddha statues. Every Buddha statue, big or small, is sacred. Don't climb and trample on the Buddha statue, and don't put the little Buddha statue in your trouser pocket.
