What are the precautions for Thailand travel in 2018
4hw.com.cn: if you have a budget of 5000 yuan to travel abroad, if you often travel abroad, if you are eager to be free, then you can choose Thailand to travel freely, but for the first time to go to Thailand, there are many things to prepare in advance, let's see what we have to pay attention to.
Maybe you've seen countless strategies and experience of countless donkeys on the Internet, but have you ever thought about how to deal with them when you arrive in Thailand and find that they're not reliable? Looking for the police? The police can't speak Chinese, so in this issue, our reporter went to Thailand in person and verified various strategies of Thailand's freedom by experience. After that, he told the readers about those things that didn't (or didn't rely on) in the strategies and told them what problems need to be paid attention to in order to have a perfect deep freedom of Thailand.
Strategy
Strategy is a must, but if you look too much, you don't see anything. The best strategy is not the personal experience sharing of several donkeys, but the standard arrangement of various information. With strategy, it doesn't mean that you can use strategy. The use of strategy is also a technical work. For example, when a reporter meets a tourist who is familiar with all kinds of Bangkok's famous works, he doesn't know how to get there; when a tourist prints out a large stack of strategies, he arrives at the scene to turn them over, but he doesn't know where to start. Therefore, the smart strategy is to read the map first and then the information. You'd better build the destination city map in your mind before you arrive in Thailand, and then follow the map. Here's a serious reminder: the scale of the free city map obtained from Jishen Hotel and other places in Thailand is too large. You'd better buy a small scale map in China. Of course, if it's the travel bible lonely planet, it's better.
However, the premise of all this is that you have to have a sense of orientation, and make great achievements in geography since childhood. What if your geography score is not good, and your boyfriend and girlfriend are not good at geography? It doesn't matter. Buy an iPhone card at the airport, and pay more traffic. You will find that Google Maps on your mobile phone is definitely your favorite in this life.
visa
It's usually a tourist visa to go to Thailand. What you need is a two inch color photo. No proof of work or property is required. If you want to be cheap, many travel agencies on Taobao are signing on behalf of you. The current price is about 230 yuan, no postage.
Exchange swap
Going to Thailand for exchange is a big problem. Despite the number of Chinese tourists, RMB users still haven't enjoyed the convenience over the years. The exchange point on the street can't exchange RMB basically, so it's more efficient and convenient to choose to exchange US dollars in China before going to Thailand. Why not exchange the baht directly in China? To exchange Thai baht in China, you can only exchange it with the Bank of China, and you need to make an appointment in advance. If it's US dollars, you can pick it up as you go, which is convenient for you to measure.
The second method is to use UnionPay debit card to withdraw baht from ATM with UnionPay logo after arriving in Thailand. With this method, 1% commission will be charged, and different cross-border single transaction fees of different banks will be charged. The exchange rate is based on the exchange rate of RMB and Thai baht on the same day.
necessary
Waterproof sunscreen. Thailand has a large sunshine intensity. If you go to the sea, you'd better buy one with waterproof SPF30 or above.
Slipper. The happiest thing in Thailand is to be able to wear slippers to get in and out of any situation. At least when entering some high-level hotels and clubs, journalists have never been stopped, even the solemn and sacred palace can be.
eat
When you arrive in Thailand, please open your mouth and eat. Every roadside stall on the street is delicious. The most important thing is that it's cheap. A bowl of noodles is about 7-9 yuan, and all kinds of pancakes are unique and rich. As for health journalists, they can't get enough information to come to the conclusion that they can eat safely. But seeing the clean and honest appearance of takeout vendors, there are so many delicious foods that are ignored at present. Because in my heart, at least, they don't have gutter oil.
In terms of restaurants, the restaurants opened by the local people are good and cheap. In the most favorite restaurant of Teresa Teng in Chiang Mai, each person spent more than 10 yuan on a meal, while the Thai barbecue buffet is also very good, with an average of 20 to 30 yuan, barbecue in the middle and soup cooking twice, which is very enjoyable.
traffic
It's not expensive to travel in Bangkok. Taking a taxi from the airport through the city to the other famous Kaoshan road is only RMB 780 at most, and the average cost of taking a taxi to shuttle between various downtown areas is within 20 yuan. But Bangkok's traffic is so heavy that it's advised to take light rail or subway to save time. In addition, when taking a taxi, there is a very important problem to be noted. Most taxi drivers in Thailand can't speak English, so even if your English is at the eighth level, you can't tell him where you want to go. The best way is to ask the front desk of your hotel to help you write down the Thai address you want to reach today, so that you are not afraid of it.
communicate
Most Thais are very helpful (except for some people in Jishi tourist area who ask for directions, they will tip you), so you can ask them for help when you want to ask for directions. But there is a problem that most of them are not good at English, so you should be brave if you can draw clearly with your hands.
In the bustling streets of Bangkok, there are sometimes more Europeans and Americans than Thais. So if you're a person who wants to know the world through travel, be brave enough to come forward and make friends with them. Here, you can meet friends from the United States, Britain, France, Singapore, Vietnam, Australia, India and other countries you know and don't know, so you only go to Thailand, but go to the world.
