 When hot, convertible
pants are the way to go!! by Jmill42
The strictness of rules changes with the level of importance of the temple you are visiting.
At the Royal Palace, no bare shoulders or shorts should be worn. Men can sometimes get away with more than women (HA HA!!) Generally, if your knees are covered, you will be fine.
Don't point, and don't point your feet towards the buddha in a temple when you kneel down. The head is considered closest to heaven and good, the feet the furthest and bad.
Shoes off
Women never "tempt" the monks!! Don't touch or hand anything to them.
Never be above a Buddha, and never touch a shrine.
Be respectful and the Thai people will respect you back. Be an idiot, and I hope they put you in a Muay Thai ring... Leave a Comment

The Phra Sri Sanphet Wihan was built in 1499 during 8 the reign of Ramathibodi II to house a standing Buddha image.
The statue, called called Phra Sri Sanphet, was originally cast in bronze and then gilded with a total of 346.5 kilograms of fine gold. This gold Buddha statue remained the city's principal image until 1767 when the invading Burmese built a fire around it in order to remove all the precious metal; all that was left was a shapeless lump of bronze.
