Please follow the dress code while visting the temples in Bangkok.

For Men: Tops: Wear shirts or t-shirts that cover your shoulders. Avoid tank tops or sleeveless shirts. Bottoms: Wear long pants. Shorts, especially those above the knee, are generally not allowed. Shoes: Comfortable footwear is fine, but you may need to remove your shoes before entering certain areas.

For Women: Tops: Wear tops that cover your shoulders and avoid revealing necklines. Sleeveless tops are not appropriate unless covered by a shawl or scarf. Bottoms: Long skirts or trousers are ideal. If you wear a dress or skirt, ensure it extends below the knees. Shoes: As with men, shoes will often need to be removed before entering temple buildings.

General Tips: Cover Tattoos: If you have tattoos, particularly of religious symbols, cover them as a sign of respect. Scarves/Shawls: Keep a light scarf or shawl handy in case you need to cover up your shoulders or arms. Avoid Bright/Flashy Clothing: Stick to neutral or subdued colors. Bright or flashy attire may be seen as inappropriate. Check Individual Temple Rules: Some temples, like Wat Phra Kaew (Temple of the Emerald Buddha), have stricter dress codes, and you may be required to rent or purchase appropriate clothing at the entrance.
