Thai Tourism Encounter with the King's Travel, Locals Must Prostrate to Welcome, What Should Chinese Tourists Do?
At the moment when tourism is so popular, the Chinese people's needs cannot be met within China, perhaps because they've seen too much of the domestic scenery and always want to see the outside world. Therefore, Chinese people have begun to travel abroad to see the world. China has basically become a major export country for tourists. The most popular country to visit is Japan, South Korea, and Thailand, neighboring countries.
How many people have traveled to Thailand? There are many tropical fruits here that are loved by the Chinese people. Thailand is also very welcoming to Chinese tourists. Most people who go to Thailand don't miss seeing the 'transvestite shows'. But when we talk about this, we all know that every country has different systems. Thailand is still a monarchy, which is equivalent to an emperor in ancient China, with great power. But China is different. Therefore, when traveling in Thailand, you often encounter some things, and we often need to 'ming luo' (adapt to the local customs). But one thing makes many people headache,
That is, when traveling in Thailand, if you encounter the Thai King traveling, what should Chinese tourists do? After all, Thai people will immediately kneel when they see the King. If they don't kneel, it's considered a violation of the royal family. This is a matter of 'dajiao' (serious matter). Therefore, Thai people will immediately kneel when they see the King or the royal family. So, what should Chinese tourists do when they encounter this situation in Thailand?
It's normal for Thai citizens to kneel for their King. But for Chinese people, it's unnecessary. But since we need to 'ming luo', we should still avoid touching their bottom line and taboos. If we happen to encounter the King or the royal family traveling, we can kneel or sit on the ground. We should just avoid looking too 'ai' (strange). Or you can just slightly bow your head, but absolutely don't stand in front of you holding your phone to take pictures. This is a very impolite behavior.
Although it's possible to travel to Thailand and see the King traveling, it's very rare to encounter him. This is like winning the lottery. The probability is very low, so this problem doesn't need to be worried about. But we must know that there is such a thing. After all, we need to be prepared for everything, so we won't be at a loss if we really encounter it, right?
