In Thailand, You Have to Take off Your Shoes Before Entering a Building

Locals follow the feet etiquette by always removing their shoes before entering homes, shops, temples, etc. That way, all the dirt from the shoes will stay outside. If you have ever been to Thailand, you probably noticed that locals prefer to sit on the floor rather than benches or chairs, so it makes perfect sense. After arriving home, Thais usually make their way to the bathroom to wash their feet.
