About this month
Low season (nationwide generalization)
The rainy season begins in most of the country, though showers are often short, heavy afternoon downpours rather than all-day rain. Landscapes turn green and it's a quieter, cheaper time to travel in most regions.
Visakha Bucha Day usually falls in May (lunar calendar) — a nationwide alcohol sales ban applies. TODO: confirm the exact date for the year before publishing.
