History of Thailand
"Thonburi Dynasty (1767-1772) and Jieji Dynasty (1772-present)." In 1772, the Jieji Dynasty was "due to years of conquest and domestic policy mistakes, in 1782 there was a huge struggle against the feudal lords in the ancient capital of Ayutaya City, and the general Phaya Jieji on the Cambodian front took advantage of the situation to rush back to Thonburi and establish the Rattana Koksin Dynasty." The Thonburi Dynasty, which lasted for 15 years, came to an end. "But here it is said that the previous dynasty disappeared in 1782, and there was a difference of 10 years in between~ Thailand is a Buddhist country, so the traditional greeting gesture of Thai people is the Buddhist ritual of putting their hands together on their chests or under their chins. Most Thais are not used to waving, but some people, due to their more contact with Westerners, have gradually embraced the form of waving, especially when meeting foreigners. Thailand is known as the "Land of Smiles", and "laughing" has become a habit of Thai people. In their usual conversations, their smiles and courteous manners will make a good impression on you. The teachings of Buddhism are the spiritual backbone of the Thai people, and philanthropy is prevalent in Thailand and has a long history in Thailand and extends to all aspects of society. Thais believe in Theravada Buddhism's teachings of "three lifetimes" and "karma". Thai people generally believe that people have "three lives" of "past life", "present life" and "future life" and "karma" theory of "good is rewarded" and "evil is rewarded". Thai people are accustomed to calling their elders uncle, uncle, aunt, or grandpa or grandma for the elders they don't know. Peers are also called brothers, or sisters. They are educated from an early age, and they should respect their parents and elders in the family. The school cultivates in students to respect teachers and be polite to senior students, and teaches students to respect teachers as if they were parents. During the annual Songkran Festival, people are accustomed to sprinkling holy water blessings on their respected elders and superiors. On the day of respecting the teacher, students should pay homage to their teacher. The trend of respecting the elders and teachers is related to the education that the society promotes to repay virtue with kindness, and the Thai people believe that gratitude and virtue are a true and proper virtue. Thai people do not have a patriarchal culture, and many families are happier to have a girl than a boy. Thai women have achieved equality with men in various areas, such as education, the right to vote and to stand for election. Buddhism has been introduced into Thailand since ancient times and has penetrated into the daily life and customs of the people, so almost all major holidays in Thailand are associated with Buddhism.
Thai festivals
Songkran
Songkran, also known as Songkran, is the annual New Year in Thailand (mid-April), and on this occasion, Thais usually celebrate by splashing water on each other, so it is also called Songkran. The traditional custom of splashing water means that you can wash away the bad luck of the past year and start anew in the new year. The current Songkran Festival is mostly fun. Bangkok will then become the battleground of crazy water fights.
Loy Krathong
Every year in November, Loy Krathong is celebrated in Thailand, a festival that celebrates the love affair between young Thai men and women. On the night of Loy Krathong, whether it is in a city or a township, as long as it is a place near a river port or lake, the water surface will be full of Krathong, shining with a piece of candlelight, reflecting the happiness of young men and women, and a piece of flower fragrance and the light and suppressed song of "putting Krathong" constitute a happy Loy Krathong night. At this time, Bangkok is full
Poetic!
Tips: Be careful not to pick up the krathong that others put in the water, this is extremely rude!
Time difference in Thailand
Thailand uses the time of the East 7 Zone, and China uses the Beijing time of the East 8 Zone, so the difference is one hour.
