What should I pay attention to when traveling to Thailand? What do you want to bring? What specialty did you bring back? Do you have any suggestions?

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.

2、? Please pay attention to dress when visiting the temple. Don't be too exposed. Do not wear 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 also indicate that you need to stay in the smoking room (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.

(2) Custom taboos

(1) royal taboo

1. Thais have great respect for their king, queen and royal family. Therefore, it is absolutely prudent to criticize the royal family in front of others. Thai law punishes disrespect for the royal family. Therefore, tourists should pay attention to show proper manners, such as when members of the royal family appear in public. It is best to pay attention to other people's actions and follow them.

As a tourist, when you hear that the national anthem of Thailand is playing, you should stop the activity immediately and stand still.

(2) Social etiquette

1. When Thai people greet each other, they don't use the typical handshake, but put their hands together. Looks like a prayer; Thais call it "wai". Generally speaking, the younger one greets the older one first, and then the older one greets with his hands folded.

It is impolite to point at others with the lower limbs of your feet. So sit with people to avoid this situation. Or if you signal something to someone, please use your hands instead of your feet.

3. Thais believe that "head" is the highest part of the body in word meaning or symbolic meaning. Therefore, they are not allowed to pat anyone on the head, even as a friendly gesture. Similarly, observing Thai social gatherings, young people will deliberately lower their heads in front of the elderly, so as not to be higher than the height of the elderly, so as not to leave the impression of "looking down" on the elderly.
