Thailand draws more visitors than any other countries in S E asia with irresistible combination of breathtaking natural beauty, inspiring temples, renowned hospitality, robust cuisine and ruins of fabulous ancient kingdoms. today I’m going to talk about Thailand or the kingdom of thailand Topic about

Beware about the tone, each tone have different meaning; เสือ เสื่อ เสื้อ

We do concern so much abt eating,,, thai people always Greeting with the question ไปไหนมา where have you been? กินข้าวยัง have you eaten yet? And in case you have food and eat alone, that’s mean you r so rude! The main food in Thailand is rice. There are many dishes of food to go with rice. Most of them are hot and spicy and that is what Thai food is famous for. But don’t worry we have many kind of food not only spicy food, especially Fruit
We have a lot of fruit to eat for whole year, For example, Here I found just only one kind of banana
But if you come to Thailand, you will see more than 10 type of bananas
And many kind of Thai dessert made from Banana also, these are my favorite thai dessert. In the lower line, used to be the loyal thai dessert, it’s hard to make but very delicious.
You can find many floating markets, where the sellers, their boats laden with a wide variety of tropical fruits, flowers, vegetables and fresh produce, Actually, you can find fresh food to eat every time and everywhere in Thailand.
From my recommendation.. about Thai food that you should not miss, if you come to Thailand. ต้มยำกุ้ง ข้าวไทย soft and smell very good.
There are many attraction places in Thailand Not only in Bangkok For example, If you go to northern part of Thailand like Chiang mai, …, you can find the high mountain to get the fresh air, beautiful temple However, if you fell in love with blue water and white sand, you should go to southern part of Thailand like,,,,,,, Or if you like party and…sth I cannot say go to Pattaya..
We have all historical places, natural places; mountain, waterfall, beautiful beaches
Do you want to try??? สอนให้ฝรั่งทำ
If compare to…..our life is not rush,no need to …walk fast That maybe the reason why thais people always come late without reason,,but its not a big deal for us
Land of smile, It seems as if no matter where you go and who you talk with, you will get smiles a plenty from Thai’s. this makes some people think that Thai people are happy all the time, NO! we often smile for very different reasons. We do smile when we are happy, we also smile when we are feeling a variety of negative emotions such as embarrassment, regret, confusion and even anger.
We have religion and I have religion
Religion influence in many things in Thailand, for example calendar, now we use the Buddhism calendar, we are in year 2555 Our new year date is 13-15 April, if you come to thailand during this period you will meet, songkran festival or Thai new year festival Songkran is the throwing of water. Thais roam the streets with containers of water or water guns or post themselves at the side of roads with a garden hose and drench each other. Songkran was traditionally a time to visit and pay respects to elders, including family members, friends, neighbors, and monks.
And one is the most famous festival in Thailand is Loy Kratong, this year it’s gonna happen in Novenber 28, everyone will make Kratong and let it away in the river to show respect to แม่คงคา or god of the river, we will celebrate together with fireworks
And one thing that receive influence from religion is marriage For thais, marriage is not the business only btw groom and bride but its for two familys, that mean two family are going to become one.
And traditional Thai dress will be used in the marriage day
This is famous sport of thai,, this is original dress for muay thai
And this is the most famous thai boxer now, his name is บัวขาว http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmrs1Ht13SE
