BANGKOK, THAILAND, December 27, 2011 (Press-News.org) Travellers to Thailand during January 2012 will be able to get into the spirit of the Chinese New Year Celebrations that will be taking place across the country.

Bangkok's Chinatown will be the central hub for festivities that will be spread across 11 major Thai provinces between January 19th and 29th 2012, reflecting the strong influence of Chinese culture in the country.

Specific events and activities will be taking place to mark 37 years of friendship between China and Thailand, with locals celebrating the year of the dragon via cooking demonstrations, regional fairs and Chinese opera performances.

Meanwhile, Bangkok's Impact Muang Thong Thani Exhibition Centre will play host to a special seasonal Thai-Chinese Dramatic Arts Performance on January 21st.

This year's celebrations will be particularly special, as they will also be used to mark the 84th birthday of King Bhumibol Adulyadej.

The Thai monarch is the longest-serving head of state in the world and the longest-reigning sovereign in the nation's history, with the Chinese New Year Celebrations set to double up as an opportunity for locals to show their love for the king.
