Festival
Dragon and Lion Procession
Each Chinese New Year, thousands of Thai and Chinese people from several provinces flock into i1akhon Sawan to celebrate and view the procession, an annual event since 1914. The procession falls on the 4th waxing day of the Chinese 1st lunar month which usually falls around the end of January or early February of every year. This ceremony of Nakhon Sawan is organised in a more grandiose manner than those of other provinces in the country, The colorful and noisy procession includes, among other things, traditional Cantonese Singhtoh(i.e. Lions), Dwarf Lion, Hainanese style Lion, Engkaw, Lorkoh the clamorous symbol - like and a Taychew musical parade, followed by a long file of hundreds of beautiful young maidens. During the festival, however, all hotels of Nakhon Sawan are fully-booked, and the revellers celebrate day and night, as they do at Chiang Mai's Songkran Festival.
Other provinces are very attractive and wait for your visiting.
Yes,Thailand is the best place in my thought,Welcome..
