Thailand is composed of four main regions: the North, Northeast (or Isaan), Central, and South. However, due to distinct geographical and climatic conditions in each region, customs, traditions, arts, and culture, such as the clothing styles of different groups of people, vary, giving each region its own unique identity.
The Northern region's attire differs from that of the South. Culture encompasses anything that humans change, adapt, or produce for the prosperity and beauty of their communities or country. It includes traditions passed down from previous generations, reflecting the way of life, beliefs, and religion of each region.
The Northeastern region's, or Isaan, consists of 20 provinces covering an area of 168,854 square kilometers, roughly one-third of the country's total area. The soil is generally not fertile, which is not conducive to agriculture. However, sticky rice, a staple food for the population, relies on flooded and poorly drained rice fields for growth. Crops are typically harvested twice a year, such as sugarcane and cassava.
The Central region's is known for its fertile plains, earning it the nickname "the rice bowl of the country." It has developed irrigation systems for rice cultivation, with the Chao Phraya River being a major water source.
The Southern region's, mostly coastal, experiences a hot and humid tropical climate with alternating heavy rains and short dry seasons throughout the year. It lacks a winter season due to its proximity to the equator and is influenced by the southwest and northeast monsoons, resulting in heavy rainfall. Ranong receives the most rainfall, while Surat Thani receives the least. Each region's unique characteristics contribute to the rich tapestry of Thai culture and heritage, reflecting the diverse landscapes and climates found across the country.
