Conditions and pitfalls
In some cases, a tourist may be asked to pay with a bank card. The deposit for the car can be 1000-2000 baht. The money will be returned to you when you hand over the vehicle to its owners, naturally, in complete safety. Therefore, before you leave the parking lot of the company, carefully inspect the car: are there any scratches on it? Vigilance must be exercised if only because fraud is widespread in the tourism industry. And don't forget to pay for insurance against theft and other troubles. It will be calmer this way.
When you rent a car, you can immediately go on it to admire the majestic temples of Thailand. The most important of them, of course, are located in the capital - Bangkok. It is the majestic Temple of the Emerald Buddha and the Temple of the Morning Dawn. The first of them contains a jade statue of Buddha, which has an emerald hue. In the second, the main tower is decorated with fragments of Chinese porcelain raised from the bottom, which ended up there after a ship wrecked from the Middle Kingdom. If you still have strength for one more visit, then you should look into the Temple of the Reclining Buddha, in which, according to historians, Thai massage was invented.
