Thailand has become one of the most popular tourist destinations in Southeast Asia with over 30 million visitors per year.
This is particularly common in big tourist destinations in Thailand like Khao San Road.
Keep your bag across your body rather than on one shoulder, and if you’re walking near the road, switch it to the side furthest from traffic.
A note on Thailand’s red light districtsBe careful walking around Thailand’s red light districts at night.
Overall, I can confidently say that being a tourist in Thailand feels incredibly safe, and exercising normal caution as one would at home is standard.
