    Extractions: NORTHERN THAI CULTURE Northern Thailand is distinct in many ways from the rest of the country. Traditionally called “Lan-Na” it has for most of its history been a separate kingdom. Northern Thai is a very different language from the official Bangkok Thai heard elsewhere in the country and varies considerably within northern Thailand itself. To complicate the picture further, northern Thailand is now the home to a number of different peoples, each with their own culture and language. In the far north west, Shan or Tai Yai people predominate. The Shan are closely related to the Thais and extend over a range centred in northern Burma (where Shan State has long been fighting for independence). In addition, the nine or ten hill tribes of Northern Thailand maintain separate cultures and languages, despite gradual integration. This ethnic and cultural diversity is one of the reasons this area is so fascinating for the visitor. 108/2 Charoenphratet Rd, Muang

Vietnam Travel Tools Weather Currency Converter Tell a Friend Make Payments History of Thailand - culture and background country Thailand means "land of the free", and throughout its 800-year history, Thailand can boast the distinction of being the only country in Southeast Asia never to have been colonized. Its history is divided into five major periods : The Thai people founded their kingdom in the southern part of China, which is Yunnan, Kwangsi and Canton today. A great number of people migrated south as far as the Chao Phraya Basin and settled down over the Central Plain under the sovereignty of the Khmer Empire, whose culture they probably accepted. The Thai people founded their independent state of Sukhothai around 1238 A.D., which marks the beginning of the Sukhothai Period. Sukhothai Period (1238-1378 A.D.)

    http://www.thaiairline.com/en/travelinfo_culture.asp
    
    Extractions: The Thai language, or Phasa Thai, basically consists of monosyllable words, whose meanings are complete by themselves. Its alphabet was created by King Ramkhamhaeang the Great in 1283 by modelling it on the ancient Indian alphabets of Sanskrit and Pali through the medium of the old Khmer characters. After a history of over 700 years, the Thai alphabet to day comprises 44 letters (including 2 obsolete ones), representing 20 consonant phonemes and 15 vowel signs, denoting 22 vowels, diphthongs and triphthongs. As Thai is a tonal language with five different tones, it often confuses foreigners who are unused to this kind of language. For example, they have difficulty in distinguishing these 3 words from each other - àÊ×Í (suea, with rising tone), àÊ×èÍ (suea, low tone) and àÊ×éÍ (sues, falling tone) which means a tiger, a mat and clothes respectively.

    Extractions: Country Info Thailand Introduction Thailand General Data Thailand Maps Thailand Culture ... Thailand Time and Date Thailand Culture Back to Top Neither a static nor a revolutionary society, Thailand has always been able to harness the talents of its people, make effective use of its natural environment, and progress at an evolutionary pace. The tendency of the Central Thai-for centuries the controlling group in Thai society-to eliminate or suppress ethnic or religious differences was tempered by the Chakkri Dynasty, which had, for the most part, fostered toleration since assuming the monarchy in 1782. Cutting across rural and national strata was the system of patron- client relationships that tied specific households or individuals together as long as both patron and client saw benefits in the arrangement. In many respects, the dynamics of political and economic life were comprehensible only in terms of patron-client relations. Another orthodox system of complex values and behaviors that the majority of Thai shared through the 1980s was Theravada Buddhism. Complementing the religion were beliefs and practices assuming the existence of several types of spirits whose behavior was supposed to affect human welfare. The Buddhism of the Thai villagers, and even of poorly educated monks, often differed substantially from the canonical religion.

    Extractions: Shopping Shops open between 9 and 10 in the morning and close around 8 at night; the smaller ones are generally closed between 2 and 4 in the afternoon. Shopping centers and supermarkets are open later (until 9 or 10 at night) as well as during weekends. Alto Las Condes, considered the most modern shopping mall in South America, will make Europeans and North Americans feel right at home. At the other end of the spectrum, a visit to the Mercado central (central market) in Santiago or any other city is a worthwhile taste of popular culture. Also recommended is a visit to one of many open-air markets offering handicrafts and artworks in wood, wool, clay, mimbre (wicker), silver and lapis lazuli (a semi-precious blue stone found only in Chile and Afghanistan).

32. Thailand Culture - AtSiam.com

    http://www.atsiam.com/travel_guides/thailand_culture.asp
    
    Extractions: Seniority is complex and involves unwritten obligations. For example, a manager dining with her staff will automatically pay the bill, regardless of the ages of those present. Some visitors find this unfair. A common assumption in Thailand is that foreigners are rich and should therefore pay higher prices than locals; hence the two-tiered pricing system seen at many tourist attractions.

    Extractions: Site last updated September 22, 2005/2548 - site map Our Adventures Book Now Travel Tips ... Gallery Why is Smiling Albino Unique? Foundation Intimacy Originality Fun ... Promises Thais are very easy going and would rarely tell you if you are doing something that offends them. However, here are few things to think about before you arrive: Heads: Never touch an adult on the head. Thais consider the head to be the highest part of the body (spiritually) and would feel incredibly uncomfortable if you were to do so. Children under the age of 10 can be touched on the head in a playful manner, but the best rule of thumb is just to not do so. Feet: On the opposite side of things, Thais consider the feet to be the lowest part of the body (spiritually) Therefore, it is extremely rude to do almost anything but walk with them. Do not put them up on chairs, ledges, etc to relax. Do not gain someone’s attention by tapping him or her with your foot. Do not open or hold open doors with your foot. This might seem a bit extreme and strange, but it will quickly become second nature.
