LoyKrathong Festival


LoyKrathong Day


One of the most beautiful festivals that take place in Thailand is the one for LoyKrathong. This is celebrated on the full moon in November 12, 2008. The word Loy means to float, and a Krathong is a banana leaf cup. People place a candle and incense sticks in their Krathongs and then float them on a local river or pond. As they push away their Krathong, they ask for forgiveness in polluting the waterways and also for good luck in the coming months. (http://www.learningthai.com/) to be continue again.
