What should I pay attention to when going to Thailand?

1. Pay attention to local customs, Thai royal family members 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.

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. 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.

According to Thai law, 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.

4. 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.

Although it is hot in Thailand, the air conditioning temperature is very low. Please prepare long clothes for the trip.

6. 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.

7. The Embassy of China in Thailand reminds China citizens that they need to bring 20,000 baht in cash (about 4,000 RMB) or equivalent foreign currency when entering Thailand, and the bank credit card is invalid. Thai immigration officials randomly check that those with insufficient cash will be refused entry. This provision applies to all kinds of visa entrants, including landing visa.
