Second, the historical story of Thailand.

Thailand has a history and culture of more than 700 years, formerly known as Siam.

In 1238, the Sukhothai dynasty was established and a relatively unified country began to form. It experienced Sukhothai Dynasty, Dacheng Dynasty, Wuli Dynasty and Bangkok Dynasty.

Sukhothai in northern Thailand is the capital of Sukhothai Dynasty (AD 1238- 1356), the first independent dynasty in Thai history. Sukhothai means "happy dawn" in Thai. It was originally just a city under the jurisdiction of Angkor in Cambodia. Later, the local Thais revolted, attacked the city and plundered the land, and established the founding dynasty of Thailand here.

According to historical records, Thailand was prosperous during the Sukhothai dynasty, and its territory far exceeded its present territory. Especially when Emperor Lan Ganxing was in power, Thai and the earliest Songjialuo ceramics industry were founded in Siam, which opened a new era in Thai history. At the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, Prime Minister Chen was defeated and occupied the city. Later he turned to Siam and died in Siam.

1350, Thailand and Wang Jianli met Ayutthaya, and envoys from eastern and western countries visited in succession, and businessmen from various countries also came here to do business. The big city is very prosperous. But later, Myanmar was belligerent and invaded Thailand, which brought great disaster to this land.

1767, Ayutthaya was invaded by the Burmese army and destroyed by Myanmar until the Burmese army withdrew from Thailand. After Thailand regained its prosperity, it annexed Wu Li as its capital and later moved to Bangkok. The big city gradually faded out of people's sight, but there were many historical sites and stories. The ancient city that fell in those days has now become one of the most important tourist destinations in Thailand.

Third, Thai common sense.

1. In Bangkok, the king and members of the royal family are highly respected. Thai law punishes disrespect for the royal family, even foreigners are untouchable. Don't talk about the royal family casually. When members of the royal family are present, it is best to pay attention to the actions of others and follow suit.

People regard their heads as sacred places, so don't touch others' heads casually. If you accidentally touch someone's head, you should apologize sincerely at once. In particular, it is forbidden for outsiders to touch the heads of children (especially young monks). Only kings, monks and their parents can touch a child's head.

Don't make too intimate actions in public, such as hugging and kissing. Naked sunbathing is only allowed on some beaches

Avoid using violent and rude language, and be patient when things happen-this is also the attitude of "happy and happy" Thais.

People don't have to sign in red. Because Thai people will write their surnames on the coffin mouth with a red pen after death.

6.loi krathong will be held every year on 12. 15 in the Thai calendar. You must pay attention when you look at the water lamp, no matter how exquisite and beautiful it is, never answer it.

7. Take off your shoes when you enter the temple. Dress neatly and dignified, and don't wear vest or shorts to enter. Women should avoid contact with monks. If they donate property, they can ask men to do it for them, or put it directly on the table.
