What do you need to know before going to Thailand?

I think it's important to learn about the local customs, as well as some of the famous tourist attractions.

Thailand is a very popular tourist country, especially because of its proximity to our country, the consumption level is relatively low, and the development of tourism resources is relatively mature and perfect, so it has been greatly welcomed by Chinese tourists. So what should I pay attention to when traveling to Thailand? It just so happened that I went to Thailand a month ago, and I wrote some experiences for you to refer to.

1.Visa Policy.

No matter which country you go to, the first two things you need to do before going abroad are to prepare your passport and visa. Passports are uniformly issued, but visa policies vary from country to country.

Thailand's visa policy for Chinese tourists is quite friendly, and Chinese tourists can get a visa on arrival when they go to Thailand. This means that we don't need to apply for a visa in advance, but can apply for it directly at the airport when we get there.

But one thing to know in advance is that if you choose to apply in advance, then the fee will be relatively low, about 1,000 baht, that is, 200 yuan, if you apply for a visa on arrival, not only will the cost be doubled, but also have to wait in line at the airport;

2.Exchange rates and prices in Thailand.

The common currency in Thailand is the Thai baht, note that both the Chinese yuan and the US dollar are not used there, and you need to exchange them for the Thai baht before you can spend it. Basically, the exchange rate in Thailand is still very convenient, and you can often see the exchange place on the street, and the exchange rate with the RMB is about five to one.

Prices in Thailand are considered to be in the middle of Southeast Asian countries, not too cheap and not too expensive. There are various King Power duty-free shops, where you can shop if you need it.

3.Travel taboos in Thailand.

Foreign tourists go to Thailand, there is a special point to pay attention to, that is, they are very attached to the royal family, so foreign tourists should not talk to them about the royal family, the streets and alleys of Thailand will be hung with the portrait of the king of Thailand, note that it is not allowed to point with your hands, it will be regarded as disrespectful. There are even tourist police officers who are specifically staring at these.

As the question suggests, what do we need to know before going to Thailand?

First of all, let's understand from food, clothing, housing and transportation.

1) No matter where you go, you need to eat, transport and sleep, then these are all things that need money, so we need to understand the exchange rate between Thai and RMB, and then exchange Thai dollars, of course, now bank cards, Alipay and something are very convenient, but it is always right to bring some cash.

2) We need to understand the local weather conditions (especially during the short period of travel), prepare clothes, sunscreen (the weather in Thailand is very hot, it is not cost-effective) to get sick and injured during the trip.

3) We need to know the problem of accommodation in advance, whether to provide toiletries, if not, you need to bring your own, and it is best to bring your own adapter.

4) In terms of eating, whether you have the habit of eating, you can bring some domestic snacks, and it is best to equip some commonly used medicines.

5) We need to understand the traffic, the traffic in Thailand is to drive on the left, which is opposite to the direction of the country, and you must pay attention to the direction of traffic when crossing the road.

6) The cost of communication when traveling to Thailand. <>

Secondly, let's learn about Thai customs.

1) Thailand is a Buddhist country, and when you meet monks, you need to be polite and avoid, and you need to take off your shoes and hat before entering a temple where Buddha statues are enshrined. If there is a religious meeting inside, you can't go inside. And don't touch the heads of Thais (even children), who think they have elves on their heads.

2) Thailand is a country that needs to pay for consumption, and it is very rude not to pay for consumption, so don't forget it (5 yuan or 1 US dollar can be prepared each time).

To sum up, when we go to Thailand, in addition to the clothing, food, housing and transportation related to ourselves, the most important thing is to understand the local folk culture and local laws and regulations, and of course, the local emergency** and the Chinese embassy**. What we need to do as tourists is to do as the locals do. In fact, no matter which country we go to, these are all things that must be understood in advance.

As the saying goes, it's hard to move an inch without money, first understand the exchange rate, Thailand uses the Thai baht, and the exchange rate of the RMB is, 1r=, that is, one RMB is equal to 5 baht. Generally, it is enough to prepare a 4W baht for 8,000 yuan, and then you can take the RMB to the Bank of China to exchange for Thai baht, it is worth mentioning that the discount for buying Thai baht in China is the highest.

Then there is the language problem, learning the local language of Thailand, it is certainly unrealistic, but fortunately, the vast majority of Thai people know English, as long as you have some English ability, it is still possible to do the simplest communication in Thailand, and if you can't do it, find a local guide. There's nothing money can't solve.

Then there is the problem of habit, don't worry that Thailand can't call a car, Thailand also has its own taxi software, not as backward as you think, the software name grabtaxi, you can find it in Apple's app store. If you want to experience the streets and alleys of Thailand, there are also Songtiao cars such as see-lor to choose from, and it is also good to rent a motorcycle.

There is also the problem of climate, don't think that the temperature in Thailand is similar to that in China, Thailand is a hot country all year round, the temperature difference between its four seasons is not large, geographically it should belong to the tropical monsoon climate, and the specific characteristics are not very clear. Anyway, it's hot, the sunshine hours are long, and the number of mosquitoes is large, so whatever kind of wind oil essence, flower water, sunscreen and the like, you can bring everything you can bring. As an added tip, temperatures in Thailand peak at 40 degrees from March to May each year.

June is supposed to be the beginning of the rainy season. Be aware of climate change and adjust when and how you travel.

There are more and more friends who travel to Thailand, Thailand's tourism industry is very developed, and the scenery is also very beautiful. Thailand is a great country for a holiday and very good value for money, so traveling to Thailand is a very good choice.

Before going to Thailand, we not only need to understand the customs, environment, temperature, customs and other aspects of Thailand, but also need to have a deep understanding, and it is always good to make more preparations. The average temperature in Thailand is around 30 degrees Celsius all year round, so we have to bring some nice summer clothes, beach skirts and be sure to bring sunscreen, sunscreen, glasses, hats, etc.

Thailand is also a country where tipping is required, so we should never forget to tip every time, otherwise it is very rude. And there are some customs in Thailand, such as not eating durian and mangosteen in hotels and cars, otherwise you will be fined. It is also non-smoking in the hotel.

Thailand is still a Buddhist country, so when going to some temples, women are not allowed to wear short skirts and shorts above the knee, etc., and it is best to bring a scarf to wrap around the legs.
