Temples [Wat] of Thailand
The important part of temple etiquette in Thailand is to be dressed properly. Visitors should ensure that their shoulders and knees are covered. Short skirts
are not at permitted within the temple compounds. Outside the temple compound, visitors can hire covering cloth if they are dressed to enter.
A Wat is a monastery temple in Cambodia, Laos and Thailand.
The word 'wat' means school.
Strictly speaking a wat is a Buddhist temple and school with resident monks. In everyday language in Thailand a wat is any place of worship except a mosque.
In most cases it is not just one building, but a collection of buildings, shrines, and monuments within a courtyard that is enclosed by a wall.
