The coastlines of Southern Thailand are some of the most stunning in the world. The cost of accommodation and food remain extremely low in comparison to Western countries and even those surrounding the Land of Smiles.
Last but not least, the locals are, for the most part, helpful, courteous, and kind. That being said, this same market is likely swarming with tourists … though the photograph does not show it. Another reason why the country may have been gained this nickname is because Thais really do smile, or yim , a lot, even in situations where a smile is not always warranted.
Saving face is important to many Thais. Instead of showing an emotion like anger or anxiety, for example, some locals will simply slap on a smile and act as if all is well. While this may be a relief to some visitors who expected the Land of Smiles to fulfill its inherent nickname, others may find the smiling front confusing.
While the country is known as the Land of Smiles, do not get the misconception that everyone and everything you come across during your time here will be as picturesque as some brochures may lead visitors to believe. Prepare for the nitty-gritty. Read up on the scams the country is known for and how to avoid them.
For example, if someone tells you the Grand Palace in Bangkok is closed but they would be more than happy to take you elsewhere. Most importantly, be prepared for an amazing journey, as the Land of Smiles is truly one of the most remarkable and welcoming countries in the entire world.

When you attempted to access it, a message that says the website is suspended due to illegal acts according to Thailand's Computer Crime Act and Gambling Act is displayed. At the time of going to print, a call to protest with the SavePornhub hashtag was announced.
Fortunately for the do-it-yourself population, ways to get around this ban have already been widely spread online.
First pun intended. The government doesn't do a good job of gaining supporters, do they? Good job on getting a rise out of PornHub peeps, I suppose. Second pun intended. The online uproar is understandable since Bangkok was revealed to be the No. Also, Thai users spent time per visit on PornHub higher than the world's average. Fun fact: 11 minutes and 21 seconds in comparison to the world's average of 10 minutes and 28 seconds.
Does this mean the government will restrict our rights to play with ourselves by closing other X-rated websites, too? No Nut November, anyone?
