About this month
Shoulder season (nationwide generalization)
Hot season begins — daytime temperatures climb noticeably, especially inland and in the north. In Chiang Mai and the north, this is also when seasonal smoke/haze from agricultural burning typically starts affecting air quality — check the Air Quality section before travelling there.
Makha Bucha Day falls in February or March, depending on the lunar calendar, and carries a nationwide ban on alcohol sales for the whole day — shops, bars and restaurants alike. Exact dates are set by the Thai Cabinet each year, so check the current year's holiday list before you travel.
