    • the markets that happened during the night and a lot of local stuff are sold including foods and goods, moreover, there might be some performances on the streetside, you can see through Thai culture from them.
    • Local food such as fried insects can be found in these markets.
    • I really like to walk in this market with my friends.

• • Songkran Festival (Water festival)
    • This festival is held for 3 days every summer, people get back to their hometowns, to see their family and pay respect to their elders by washing their hands with water gently.
    • On the other hand, young people around the country are expected to be splashed by water, so please be aware of getting wet during this period in Thailand.
    • This is my favorite festival in Thailand.

• • Loy Krathong
    • This festival is held on a full moon night once a year. it is a celebration of gods that ancient people believe in and continues to these days.
