Thailand’s coffee culture alone is reason enough to put it on your bucket list! ☕🇹🇭

Celebrate National Cappuccino Day (November 8) and National Espresso Day (November 23) this month by trying these fan-favorite cafés throughout Thailand.

Did you know that Northern Thailand is one of Southeast Asia’s top coffee-growing regions, known for speciality Arabica coffee grown in the highlands of Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai, including well-known growing areas like Doi Chaang and Doi Tung. Local hill tribe farming communities cultivate much of it, then independent cafés across Thailand roast and brew it fresh.

The Royal Barge Procession returns to Bangkok, Tha

The Royal Barge Procession returns to Bangkok, Thailand, on Friday, November 6, 2026 🇹🇭

The Royal Barge Procession is a centuries-old Thai royal tradition dating back to the Ayutthaya Kingdom, held only for major royal and religious ceremonies. On November 6, 52 ceremonial royal barges will sail along Bangkok's Chao Phraya River to Wat Arun Ratchawararam (the Temple of Dawn) for the Royal Kathin Ceremony.

This year’s procession honors the 48th birthday of Her Majesty Queen Suthida of Thailand. During the Royal Kathin Ceremony, His Majesty King Maha Vajiralongkorn (King Rama X) will present new robes to Buddhist monks, a tradition that follows the end of Buddhist Lent (Ok Phansa).

📍 Where: Chao Phraya River to Wat Arun, Bangkok, Thailand
📅 When: Friday, November 6, 2026

Have you noticed the tiny, decorated houses outside homes and shops in Thailand? 🏠 These are spirit houses, built for guardian spirits believed to watch over the land. People often leave flower garlands, fruit, or incense as offerings for their protection 🌼

You’ll find them woven into everyday life, from corners of quiet neighborhoods to busy city streets. Keep an eye out for one on your next walk through Thailand ✨
