Loy Kra Thong

Among the traditional festivals in Thailand, the most beautiful one is "Loy Kra Thong" (Loy Kra Thong). If we can tell from the "Songkran Festival" in April that the Thais are mad in the "water war", then the "Loy Krathong Festival" in November each year fully embodies the beautiful love of Thai young men and women. Because every night of the Loy Krathong Festival, whether it is a city or a town, as long as it is near a river port or lake, the water will be full of water lanterns, shining with a candlelight, reflecting the happiness of young men and women. The fragrance of flowers and the brisk song of "Long Lanterns" form a joyful night of Loy Krathong.

The Loy Krathong Festival is the most meaningful and mythological festival in Thailand. It is held on the night of December 15th in the Thai calendar every year (November in the Gregorian calendar). In this period after the rainy season, Thailand is a beautiful season when the river is rising and the moon is refreshing. According to Thai traditional customs, Thai people will put their hand-made water lanterns into the river on the day of Loy Krathong, to place their good wishes and blessings in their hearts. Hope you all have a good day.
