Following changes in the Burmese government's policy towards tourism in 2012, Thai tourists began traveling to Myanmar in ever-increasing numbers. Despite a number of other tourist destinations, Burmese Buddhist pilgrimage sites have become major religious attractions for Thai tourists. The increasing popularity of Thai Buddhist pilgrimage to Myanmar raises questions about the possible impact of tourism on longstanding Thai antagonism towards the Burmese. Highlighting the 16th-18th century Burmese-Siamese Wars, Thai nationalistic historiography has portrayed the Burmese as enemies of the Thai nation in school textbooks, films, and other social media. This dissertation asks to what extent Thai tourism may be changing the longstanding Thai conceptions of Myanmar fostered by Thai nationalism.By investigating the historical development of Thai pilgrimage tourism to Myanmar such that Burmese Buddhist sites have become sacred destinations for Thais, the process and experiences of Thai tourists in Myanmar, and current trend in Thai popular religious practice that have promulgated transnational religious practice, this dissertation concludes that Thai attitudes towards the Burmese are being challenged. Thai pilgrimage tourism to Myanmar gained popularity as a result of Thailand and Myanmar's internal as well as international political and economic changes. Increasing contacts between Thai and Burmese people, together with the spread of Thai academic discourses critical of the Thai nationalist historiography, have precipitated re-examinations of Thai anti-Burmese ideology. The Buddhist goal of merit-making and the management of tour groups have reinforced the image of Myanmar as religious land. The increasing popularity of the Burmese spirituality in Thailand is emerging in a religious climate in which religious choices are not limited by one's national identity, but rather cultivated by desires for speed and efficacy in religious symbols and practices. Growing transnationalism, shifting politics, and increasing religious consumption of merit-making is promoting Myanmar as a sacred land, thereby defying national boundaries of spirituality and mitigating Thai antagonism towards the Burmese.
