Bih Ji, 22, listened to his colleagues talk about spiritual things while traveling to Thailand. She immediately brought what she believed would help to avoid misfortune... for her first trip abroad. And the tourist group of over 20 people from Yuan, no one tells each other that they are full of... garlic in their luggage.

Is the spirituality of traveling to Thailand real?

Mai Bích Ngọc, 22, with 25 members of the Thai Travel Company in early August 2022. She shares: "After two years of pandemic, it's lucky that the company facilitates overseas travel, the happier it is to know the destination is Thailand. I came to Thailand with the desire to learn more about the culture – religion and beliefs here. The stories of the Buddha, the Buddhist culture of Xiao Ji made the congregation to expand the knowledge, the soul as pure, more pure.

Besides, the spiritual matters of traveling in Thailand do not make Jeans and members curious and vague. Even though it's only spoken from many people who have travelled to Thailand, unconfirmed, but everybody thinks, it seems to be true.

Ms. Chen C., Tai Yuan, tells us about the ridiculous situation in hotels in Bangkok and Pattaya, Thailand. "I don't even dare to sleep because of people's stories of spiritual stories in Thailand. Even though the crew came home late, usually two o'clock in the morning, it was very tired but I always told the other person in the bedroom back so as not to get difficult to sleep”. And Mr. Nguyen Zhang N.A., 34, a member of this tourist group, is very cautious. "When I checked in at a hotel in Bangkok, I knocked on the door, asked me to sleep, and then I threw out a coin to reassure me. It's spiritual. I believe in the good.

Forbidden things related to religion.

Easily understood by Thailand as the colourful land of religion. So the spiritual stories are a reflection of the rich spiritual life of the people. Travelers to Thailand need to note that the trip is complete, good luck. The people of Thailand value Buddhism, temples and monks. So, the rules of conduct you need to know to avoid being in this place of worship.

Polite costume, new adjustment to the temple. Travellers are absolutely not wearing bra, shorts, open-sleeved dresses... if they wear a shirt before visiting religious establishments in Thailand.

The visitor is a woman who keeps a distance, does not touch the monk.

The Thai believed that the legs were not noble on the body. So when you go into the temple, remember to put off your shoes and shoes outside. In addition, visitors do not put their feet in the direction of Buddha and the gods in the temples.

When photographing in a temple, you need permission from the temple manager. Because some places in Thai temples don't allow visitors to take pictures. Especially remember, you don't touch the statue, make a reproach to the Buddha.

Some abstinence in life

The abstinence of life is also something that travellers notice besides the spirituality of traveling to Thailand.

Thai people say young people eat before adults. In the next life, they won't be human. If you eat other people's food, you can get choked.

In the Thai view, they don't eat all the rice in the afternoon. The rest of the rice belongs to the creatures, the souls. Thai people believe that eating cold meals mixed with hot meals is easy to get lost.

Don't scream at night.

For Thai people, the devil is symbolized by the noisy noise of the night. It is said that the devil is standing in the dark, waiting for him to go out with. The Thai believed that the noise of the night was the invite of the devil, not good.

Knock on the door three times before entering the hotel room.

This applies not only to Thailand, but to any hotel. Even Vietnamese travelers often notice knocking on the door when checking in. This, as an announcement, you have booked your room and requested permission to stay for a short period of time. Just knocking three doors, visitors will avoid the harassment of unhealthy things.

However, the visitor notes, all spiritual things are oral, scientifically unproven. Travelers should not be too anxious and confused to make the trip to Thailand unpleasant. Be optimistic, enjoy your journey, that's what's fortunate with us forever.
