Thailand: Home to the World's Largest Buddhist Population

Can you imagine a country where almost everyone practices Buddhism, where temples are the heart of the community, and where Buddhist teachings are intricately woven into every aspect of daily life? Welcome to Thailand.

This is why Thailand is often called the “Land of Golden Temples.” With over 95% of its population practicing Buddhism, Thailand has the third-largest Buddhist population in the world—after China and Japan—boasting approximately 64 million Buddhists. Thailand is not just a country; it is a true Buddhist sanctuary.
What makes this phenomenon so unique?

While it cannot be definitively claimed that Thailand has the highest proportion of Buddhists globally, it is undoubtedly among the countries with the most devoted Buddhist populations. Buddhism is considered the national religion of Thailand, deeply embedded in its culture and society for thousands of years.

Thailand, along with neighboring countries like Laos and Cambodia, showcases a way of life where Buddhism is more than just a religion—it is an essential part of the people’s culture and lifestyle. From traditional ceremonies and festivals to architecture, ethical values, and life philosophies, Buddhism permeates every corner of Thai society.
