How to behave in Thailand
Thai people put great emphasis on good manners and politeness so it will help if you understand some of their customs and beliefs.
1. When entering a Thai home, or temple, it is customary to remove your shoes. And don't point your feet at anyone or use them to indicate anything.
"Have a nice trip in Chiangmai Have a nice trip in Lanna."






2. The King and all the Royal Family are held in extremely high regard by all Thai people and due respect is required. This also applies to money, or any other object bearing the King's image. Above all, do Not put your foot on money.
3. Any insult to the Buddhist religion or Buddha icons or images can carry heavy penalties. When entering a temple you are requested to dress appropriately. Singlets and shorts are not acceptable. Also, touching any part of monk, or his robes, is strictly taboo for the women.
4. A "Wai" is when hands are put in front of the face as a gesture of greeting or respect. It has many meanings and visitors are advised only to reply to a "Wai" rather than "lead the way" It is never proper to "Wai" to servants or children although it is appropriate to return a wai.
5. It is advisable not to drink tap water. Bottled or carbonated water is cheaply and readily available.
6. If travelling in a taxi or tuk tuk it is usual to settle the fare before you begin your journey.
