Answer

• Always greet with a 'Sawasdee' and a slight bow with your hands in a prayer position, as it shows respect. • When visiting temples, dress modestly by covering shoulders and knees, and remove shoes before entering sacred spaces. • Avoid public displays of affection, as they may be considered inappropriate in Thai culture.
