Weather and Climate
| Q: |
What
is the best time to visit Thailand? |
| A: |
The
best time to travel to Thailand is when the weather
is cooler during mid-October to early March. It's OK
to visit Thailand during the off-season too as the temperature
is generally moderate throughout this period and there
are always lots of festivals and activities all-year-round.

Q: |
When
is the monsoon season, and what are the other seasons
in Thailand? |
| A: |
Roughly
divided, there are three seasons: the cool season (November
to February), the hot season (April to May), and the rainy
season (June to October). Average temperatures are about
29° C, ranging in Bangkok from 35° C in April
to 17° C in December.
|
| Q: |
Do
different regions in Thailand have different climates? |
| A: |
Thailand
is about 1,000 km (620 miles) to the south of the Tropic
of Cancer, within the tropical monsoon zone of Southeast
Asia. Thailand's climate is consequently warm and mild
throughout the year, though there are slight differences
in each particular region. The northern region can be
a bit cooler during the cool season, so visitors are advised
to pack a sweater or light jacket at this time. Closer
to the equator, the southern peninsula of Thailand has
little seasonal variation in climate.
