Soon we will all be celebrating Loy Krathong, where will you celebrate this colourful and magical festival? Loy Krathong is as old as Thai heritage and represents a close bond between Thai culture and water. The festival takes place on the full moon night of the twelfth lunar month when the water level is high and the climate is cooler. Participants ask water spirits to sail away their troubles in their krathongs, which are containers traditionally made from banana leaves and carrying offerings of incense, lotus flowers and small money. The festival of Loy Krathong is a time to pay our respects to the Goddess of Water by floating candles and joss-sticks.
