Public/Government holiday - 22 February (Monday) Makha Bucha Day

Immigration will be closed as will all other government offices, main bank branches closed but satellite branches in places like malls open. This is also a no-alcohol day.

How is Maka Bucha Day celebrated?

In the morning many Thai people wake up early to give alms to monks. In the evening, temples are full of people listening to sermons. They often perform a ritual known as the the candle ceremony where they walk clockwise three times around the temple. holding flowers, incense and a lighted candle.

In Thailand, the sale of alcohol is banned on religious holidays. This means bars and clubs are closed for the entire holiday.

hands up....who read the headline "holiday" and immediately thought about beer.?

I did depsite the fact that I always have a box at home.

I had a visit from BIB last night. Warned to close Monday... in the most friendly manner.

i doubt ill have any problems spending 104bt tomorrow although holiday traffic might make crossing the road a bit more hectic.

On Monday, expect to see several requests on ThaiVisa forum, "Where can we find beer", desperate in Chiang Mai.

Were they carrying assault rifles?
