People
        of Thailand enjoy good number of public holidays most of which are based
        around festivals or national events. Thai people use the public holidays
        to take a break from work or visit relatives. During festivals, domestic
        traveling increases a lot. In case you plan to visit Thailand and
        particularly Pattaya during festival time, get your traveling and
        accommodation reservations in advance. Or else you would not get
        transportation and hotel rooms in the places you want to visit. And
        remember. Don't leave Bangkok for any other Thai town on the first day
        of a public holiday and return to the capital on the last day. It would
        be so crowdy that you would regret.
