Is it hot to go to Thailand in May?

1, hot but passable. May has entered the rainy season, and it may rain at any time. Remember to bring an umbrella. Rain comes and goes quickly. If the temperature is 30 degrees, it will be sultry and humid when it doesn't rain, and it will feel a little sticky, just like summer in southern China.

2. Clothes should have long sleeves, because the air conditioner in many places is too full and it will be cold. Remember to bring a raincoat or umbrella.

Basic introduction

The Kingdom of Thailand (Thai:, English: The Kingdom of Thailand) is commonly known as Thailand. Constitutional monarchy in Southeast Asia. Thailand is located in the middle of Indochina Peninsula, bordering Myanmar and Andaman Sea in the west, Laos in the northeast, Cambodia in the southeast and Malaysia in the south.

Regional position

Thailand is located in the south-central part of Indochina Peninsula in Asia, bordering Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Malaysia, the Gulf of Thailand (Pacific Ocean) in the southeast, the Andaman Sea (Indian Ocean) in the southwest, Myanmar in the west and northwest, Laos in the northeast and Cambodia in the southeast. Its territory extends southward along the crater strait to the Malay Peninsula, bordering Malaysia, and its narrow part lives between the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean.

topography

Topographically, it is divided into four natural areas:

The jungle in the northern mountainous area, the vast paddy fields in the central plain, the semi-arid farmland in the northeast plateau, the tropical islands in the southern peninsula and the long coastline. Most borders are low mountains and plateaus. The terrain is changeable and can be divided into four parts: west, middle, east and south.

The northeast is the Nakhon Ratchasima Plateau, which is extremely dry in summer and muddy in rainy season, and is not suitable for farming. In the middle is Zhaopina River (Zhaopina River) plain. From Bangkok to the north, the terrain gradually rises slowly, and the land along the Chao Phraya River is fertile, which is the main agricultural producing area in Thailand. To the south of Bangkok is the mangrove area of Siam Bay, which did not enter the water at high tide and became a mangrove swamp at low tide. Southern Thailand is a continuation of the western mountains, which form the Malay Peninsula to the south, and the narrowest place is called the crater isthmus.

Ordinary people in Thailand are used to comparing the national map to the head of an elephant, regarding the north as the elephant crown, the northeast as the elephant ear, the Siam Bay as the elephant mouth and the narrow strip in the south as the elephant trunk. [7]
