Western tourists visiting Thailand in the wake of King Bhumibol Adulyadej's death this Thursday seem to be a bit taken aback by the intensity of the country's mourning.

Several vacation-goers tweeted their disappointment at the closure of nightlife venues and cancellation of "entertainment" events — though most were sensitive to the glum national mood. Others advised anyone thinking of making the trip to reconsider the dates.

Perhaps the biggest blow was the shutdown of the Full Moon Party, an all-night beach bash held every full moon on the island of Koh Pha Ngan popular among international tourists.

No alcohol in Thailand for 30 days because of mourning the death of the king?

Many of the country's websites and TV stations have gone completely black-and-white out of respect for the fallen king. Monochrome footage of Adulyadej's life has dominated the airwaves.

Facebook also announced it was blacking out all ads in the country for an undetermined length of time as part of a "cultural custom."

A funeral for the widely revered leader drew thousands in the Thai capital of Bangkok on Friday. National media broadcasts went black as the king's body underwent a traditional bathing ceremony.

The country has also declared a one-year mourning period.

Thailand's tourism agency released a set of guidelines on Friday for travelers visiting the country. Most major attractions will remain open except the Wat Phra Kaeo (Temple of the Emerald Buddha) and the Grand Palace.

The letter also encourages visitors to wear dark clothing if possible in solidarity with the many Thai citizens doing so to honor the late king. Restaurant and bar owners are encouraged to adjust business hours in accordance with the country's state of grief, but they ultimately have the final say.
