How people dress in Bangkok
- Highs reach 31–34 °C in every month, so loose, light, breathable clothing is essential all year.
- The rainy season runs roughly from May to October, with rain on 20–26 days a month, so a compact umbrella and quick-drying shoes or sandals help.
- The Grand Palace and temples such as Wat Pho require covered shoulders and knees, and shoes come off before entering temple halls.
- Malls, BTS trains and cinemas are strongly air-conditioned, so a light long-sleeve layer is useful.
- November to February is the driest stretch, but days remain hot, so summer clothing works year-round.
