Do you celebrate Christmas with your family?
Thailand is a nation that is overwhelmingly Buddhist, with very few Christians, and Christmas Day on 25 December is only a public holiday in certain provinces of the country.
Note: Christmas Day is observed in Narathiwat, Pattani, Yala and Satun provinces only.
Particularly, in hotels and at tourist venues of all kinds, you will see people donning Santa hats and hear them wishing you a merry Christmas. You may also see local shopping malls sporting Christmas lights, trees, and other seasonal decorations.
All a guise to get tourists to spend their money.
We celebrate as a family, the same we did as when we were in the USA.
A fun holiday to remember the traditions of Christmas’s past.
