Details of things to note when traveling to Thailand in 2017

Thailand is a typical Buddhist country. The pace of life in every city here is very slow. Everyone can slowly adapt to this normal life. However, the big cities in Thailand also have their own crazy side, with all kinds of boldness. The art of sexual behavior in Thailand is very unrestrained, and there are many entertainment projects, so you should pay attention to many details when traveling in Thailand.

I just came back from Thailand, so I would like to share some of my personal thoughts and suggestions with you

This is for reference only. If you have any objections, you are welcome to discuss "Visa"

< p>I won’t say much about this, because I have already written a post about Thai visas before. If you need it, you can read my previous post by yourself

What I want to say here is, Starting from next month (starting August 1st), the cost of visa on arrival in Thailand will return to the original price of about 450 yuan (2000). It is currently 1000 yuan. If you plan to travel to Thailand, hurry up and travel in July;

Or in advance If you sign up for a Thai sticker visa, the Thai visa fee-free policy will also be canceled before August 31. When there is a fee, it seems to be more than 200 per person! "Immigration Department"

Requires 20,000 per person ( Approximately RMB 4,000) or RMB or US dollars of equivalent value will be randomly checked. Although the chance of random checks is very low, it is not a lot of money. It is recommended to bring a "communication card" just in case.

We will check in advance I bought a happy card from tb, and now all happy cards have been upgraded to an 8-day package.

During the 8 days of activation, there was 2.5G high-speed traffic, that is, 4G speed traffic, and 299 yuan of phone bills, etc. I made many calls to China during my stay in Thailand, but the traffic and expenses were endless. Ha

It is recommended to buy them in advance. I saw at the immigration that the local selling price in Thailand is about RMB 60 each. However, we bought 4 happy cards at tb and the postage was only about one hundred yuan. Time difference』

Thailand is one hour behind Beijing time. "Payment method"

The most common ones are of course cash and visa. UnionPay is not accepted in some places but it is quite common;

There are also powerful WeChat Pay and Alipay, which are also very common. Convenience stores and shopping malls are basically OK, and Alipay is even lower than the real-time exchange rate! "Communication method"

Because Chinese tourists are super There are many, almost everyone from the store clerk to the driver can communicate with you in simple Chinese, except for the islands, because there are quite a lot of foreigners in the island areas, so English is the main "ticket"

This I booked four flights for the first time, one with AirAsia and one with Thai Airways.

Here I have to complain about AirAsia’s official website. It’s really bad! Every time I book it, I’m going to get pissed off!

Other than that, I am very satisfied with both the itineraries I booked with Qunar and Fliggy!

When booking with AirAsia, remember to purchase additional shipping fees!

Thailand Air China does not require it , already includes 20kg of luggage and meals, and the seats are much wider! "Arrival Card"

The immigration card to Thailand will be issued and filled out in advance on the plane

English only and Thai, the second picture is the Chinese and English version of "Hotel"

It is mainly based on booking. I personally feel that the reviews on booking are more realistic. "Pick-up and drop-off"

They are all in Booked with tb, we basically booked pick-up and drop-off for every flight, especially Krabi, which is super far away and the transportation is not developed enough. In the next article, I will give you a detailed recommendation of "A must-have waterproof case for getting into the water"

< p>If you plan to go overseas, remember to bring a waterproof mobile phone case, "Sunscreen Essentials"

Three-piece sunscreen set: sunscreen + spray, big hat, sunglasses

Anaisan small gold bottle !The absolute No. 1 sunscreen!

The sun is shining almost every day! The sea water is so bright! However, I didn’t get a tan!

The day I went to sea, I was so afraid of the dark that it reached a new level , so I kept applying and spraying it, and reapplying it every time I went into the water. You must know that the ultraviolet rays in the water are also super strong!

I saw that many of my peers who applied sunscreen were still flushed from the sun. However, We are neither black nor red! "Bring toothbrush and toothpaste"

Many hotels in Thailand do not have toothbrushes and provide "driving license and translation"

Thailand recognizes Chinese driver's licenses. Renting a motorcycle Or if you have a car, you should prepare a "motorcycle rental"

Generally, hotels have this service, which is more convenient, but it will be more expensive. Remember that the rental time is based on 24 hours, not on a daily basis< /p>

Be sure to wear a helmet!

It is recommended to prepare a raincoat. It often rains while the sun is out. It is inconvenient to hold an umbrella while driving.

Bring a sun protection coat. I got sunburned while driving a motorcycle! "Motion Sickness Medicine"

I get seasick, motion sickness, and plane sickness. As long as it's a means of transport, I get dizzy easily. This little thing is always on hand. You can buy it from Thailand 7, 5 There are two pills in a pack of 1 Yuan, so remember to take it 30 minutes in advance! "Horse Kills Chicken"

It is an indispensable item when going to Thailand. Like the Qizai convenience store, there is one almost every few steps.

p>

I didn’t go to the Internet celebrity store, but I clicked wherever I went, and it was almost the same

There is a foot massage at the night market "Bangkok Skytrain"

Bangkok's main route It’s the Skytrain, which is more expensive than China’s subway.

The ticketing method is mainly coins. It is recommended to prepare a pile of coins to facilitate the coin purchase. 2 yuan coins cannot be used

Then It's extremely cold inside the carriage! An old man like me shivers every time I enter the station, it's like entering a freezer "Tutu Price"

In Chiang Mai, except for motorcycles, we all travel by Tutu;

p>

In Bangkok, if we can’t get the Skytrain, we choose tutu

The difference between songthaew and tutu is that songthaew is equal to a bus and will continue to pick up other passengers on the road, while tutu is equal to Taxis will not take other people

But there is no official fixed price for TU, so you need to decide it yourself

The price given by the driver will be cut in half, and then the driver will bargain a little more and it will be almost the same.

We usually check the kilometers of the route first, and then negotiate with the driver

In Chiang Mai, we bargained for 100 to 120 for a 4-kilometer journey, and it was slightly higher in Bangkok< /p>

The driver will generally not take the initiative to tell you the price before departure. To avoid being cheated, be sure to ask about the price before getting on the bus!

Bangkok is really a super congested city! There are traffic jams all the time! "Instructions for driving"

Thailand's road conditions are quite good, but the driver generally drives too fast

Be sure to wear seat belts regardless of whether you are in the front or rear seats! Mandatory

If it is found that it is not tied, you will be fined! "Tampon"

When traveling, I am most afraid of a visit from my aunt, especially when going to the beach

However, I am afraid of returning, what is supposed to come will still come

Prepare a pack of tampons and continue to have fun

I bought tampons from ob

< p>I don’t usually have the habit of using tampons, but I was really surprised after using them, there was no leakage at all!
