More about Thailand
Culture
The Buddhist religion and its ancient traditions are central to Thai culture. The numerous temples with their multi-storey roofs, many towers and magnificent decorations are evidence of the ancient kingdoms of Sukhothai (13th-15th centuries) and Ayutthaya (14th-18th centuries). In addition to the architecture, art, with its large wall paintings and the numerous, often larger than life-size Buddha figures, also served to decorate the temple complexes.
In its beginnings, Thai literature was determined by poetry. For a long time it was confined to the royal court. From the 20th century, prose forms prevailed, especially the novel and the short story. A well-known novel in modern literature is, for example, »The Judgment« (1982) by Chart Korbjitti (* 1954). The theater has developed different forms. These include the Lakhon Theater, in which chanting, dance and a joker play a major role, the Khon Theater with the pantomime of masked men and the shadow play of the Nang Theater. In the shadow plays, the action takes place behind an illuminated white cloth, and you can only see the shadows of what is moving behind it.
Thai film is less used for artistic expression than entertainment. Martial arts films are particularly popular. The filmmaker Apichatpong Weerasethakui (* 1970) won the Golden Palm of Cannes in 2010 for the fantasy film “Uncle Boonmee remembers his previous life”.
The classical Thai music is played with drums, xylophones, metallophones, gong games and an oboe leading the melody. In the 1930s, Lukthung developed as its own folk music. With the American soldiers, western rock and soul music came to Thailand from the 1960s, which was further developed into Thai pop in the 1990s with Thai lyrics. One of the most popular representatives is Tata Young (* 1980). Under the influence of military rule, the younger music scene has become more political, eg »Rap Against Dictatorship«.
Thai boxing is the national sport of Thailand. It evolved from a form of martial art to a competitive sport that has been popular around the world since the 20th century. Thai boxing is a little harder than boxing. Kicking the opponent is also allowed in Thai boxing. Golf and boat racing are other popular sports. Sepak Takraw, a kind of “soccer tennis”, is practiced all over Southeast Asia. Makruk is the Thai way of playing chess.
