Transport	A combination of buses, minivans, motorcycle taxis, săhm·lór (pedal rickshaws), túk-túks and sŏrng·tăa·ou (pick-up trucks). Only Bangkok has a light-rail transport system. There is an extensive inter-province metre-gauge railway system too.
Best time to travel	The cool season from November through February has more manageable temperatures and less rain, even if it is still hot to most visitors.
What to wear	How to dress depends on where one is. In the metropolitan areas conservative casual and smart casual attire is recommended but when visiting temples or mingling with hill tribes — cover up. Neat, clean clothing is considered respectful. Cope with the heat by wearing light, breathable natural fabrics.
