Thailand introduces new rules for tourists: year of mourning after the death of the queen
The mourning period has begun in Thailand following the death of the former queen Sirikit at the age of 93. The government has established behavior rules and a dress code for tourists, urging them to avoid bright clothing and luxury, especially in royal residence areas and at official events.
Access to temples and other places may be restricted, and events such as festivals may take place in a shortened form. The government has urged event organizers to make their programs quieter and simpler. Tourists are advised to adhere to local traditions and show respect for the mourning in the country.
Any loud parties or excessive joyful celebrations may be perceived as an act of disrespect.
