Christmas in Thailand is on 25th of December, always in winter. Winter in Thailand is sometimes cold or even hot. You will rarely see people go to church because most Thai people are Buddhists. We never get presents for Christmas. In Bangkok and other big towns all the department stores, shopping malls and big hotels usually put up a big Christmas tree. They are often in competition to see who can put up a bigger or brighter Christmas tree. Christmas in Thailand is just for young people and children go out and take some photos by a Christmas tree or have dinner together. Thai people like to celebrate even if Christmas is not our religion’s celebration. The best place to see a nice Christmas tree in Bangkok is Central World Plaza because it is very big and very bright.Wednesday, December 23, 2009

Very interesting to know about how to celebrate Cristmas for other non-Christian country. But I feel Japan is the worst country to misunderstood the concept.

ReplyDeleteI remember when I go to a sky area I saw tourist from taiwan. They watched the snow with great curiosity. May be gai also! Isn't it?
Young people and children like Christmas more than adults and most old people have quiet time during christmas in Korea.
ReplyDeleteIt's similar between Korea and Thailand
I think Tailand is a good place for relaxtion during Christmas time. I visited Tailand during summer in 2008 and it was really a wonderful trip which i will never forget. I like the people, the spicy Tai food and of course cheap price, you can enjoy all you want.
