Loy Krathong Day at Phutthamonthon Nakhon Pathom
Thank you translate.google.co.th [TH/EN]
Hello everyone
Normally, you will see me posting only food, but today I will change the atmosphere a bit. But but but but but, but anyway, I have to have a menu for everyone as usual, but I will add a place recommendation. The origin of this place that we had the opportunity to visit was because we came to capture the atmosphere. The tradition of Loy Krathong Day in Thailand is a tradition and culture of asking for forgiveness from the rivers and water sources for doing bad things to the rivers. It is a way of asking for forgiveness. This is a tradition that has been passed down for a very long time. And if anyone lives near the place that I will recommend today, it is Phutthamonthon Square in Nakhon Pathom Province. It is definitely the largest Phutthamonthon in the country.
Actually, there are many Buddha Monthons or maybe in every province. I am not sure. I do not dare to guarantee this. But I think there should be some in big provinces. As I have been to many provinces, there are some in Samut Sakhon and Nakhon Ratchasima. I think there should be some in many provinces, especially big provinces because there are definitely some in Thailand. But if it is the first place that was built, it should be in Nakhon Pathom. I heard that it was built since 1957, the Buddhist year, by Field Marshal Pibulsongkram or Field Marshal Sarit, something like that.
Okay, I will not study. First of all, the menu that I ate this morning. There was pork blood soup that my wife bought yesterday. There was also an omelet that she fried this morning. I still have the atmosphere in the morning. The weather is good. This morning, I have dropped off my daughter. On the way, it is the same as before. If there is a traffic jam on the bridge, I often take pictures from this angle to share with everyone. Good morning, let's greet the sun in the morning here.
At first, the sky seemed clear, but not for long. The sky was dark and full of rain clouds. It rained quite heavily. It has been raining for several hours until almost noon.
And the lunch menu, I don't think it's worth mentioning. Instant noodles, but it looks interesting in the evening. Boiled chicken rice and fried chicken rice. The boiled chicken is for my daughter. She said she just ate at 5:00 PM. I'm hungry again. My daughter, at 8 PM, followed by boiled chicken rice. As for me, fried chicken rice.
Then we traveled to the Loi Krathong festival area at Phutthamonthon Nakhon Pathom. The route we traveled was Phutthamonthon Sai 4, which is the route that goes straight to Phutthamonthon. Phutthamonthon is between Phutthamonthon Sai 4 and Sai 5. It covers an area of hundreds of rai. It is a place where people go to exercise and have various activities. Especially about Buddhism, there are events here regularly.
And of course, today is also the Loi Krathong tradition. There is a place set up to facilitate people to float their krathongs to ask for forgiveness from the Goddess of the River or to ask for forgiveness from the water. Remember what we have done wrong. Some people use water in the wrong way. Some people throw bad things into the river. They ask us to remember and ask for forgiveness. This is a Thai tradition that has been done for a very long time.
So I took this opportunity to take some pictures of this place at night. Normally, this place is not allowed to enter at night. I'm not sure, but I think it's something like that. Because most government offices like this don't allow people to enter at night. They only have to have the opportunity to enter. Of course, the atmosphere at night must be beautiful like this. People decorate it with colorful lights like this. It's very beautiful. So I'm sharing it with you to see the Buddha Monthon at night.
