Almost all visitors to Thailand will come into contact with Buddhism in
some way. There are more than 200,000 monks in Thailand so you will see
monks and novices out and about on the streets. There are more than
30,000 temples (wat in Thai) so you will see and may visit a temple, or
several. Those lucky enough to spend some time with a Thai family will
find themselves witnessing and even participating in many of the rituals
and customs that are part of everyday Buddhism in Thailand.
This is NOT a book for the serious student of Buddhism, but rather a description and explanation of what you might encounter in everyday life in Thailand.
