Planning your Thailand trip
Best time to go: November to February is usually cooler and drier, but flights and rooms can be harder to find around major holidays. Ko Samui and the Central Gulf Coast have a different pattern, with the dry peak season from May to October.
- Buddhist templesNearly every town or village has a temple, called a wat. Many contain several prayer buildings, shrines and monuments.
- Temple halls and towersThe wihan usually holds the main Buddha image and welcomes visitors making offerings. Bell-shaped chedis and finger-shaped prangs serve as religious monuments.
- Chatuchak Weekend Market, BangkokThis large market sells a wide range of goods, from clothing to antiques.
- Chiang Mai Night BazaarThis is one of Thailand's best-known night markets, with goods such as clothing and handicrafts.
Scams to watch for in Thailand
- Gem and jewellery scamA driver or friendly stranger leads you to a shop. Sellers offer near-worthless stones or cut glass at high prices. They may claim you can sell them abroad for a large profit. Drivers earn commission.
- The attraction is closedA tout or driver says your destination is closed for a holiday or repairs. They offer another tour, discount admission or a ride to shops. Several people may pose as officials and repeat the same story. You can end up far from the centre at overpriced shops.
- Taxi meter refusalA driver refuses to use the meter, switches it off or demands an inflated fixed fare. In Chiang Rai, some metered taxis cover the meter with tape.
