Loy Krathong is a traditional festival in Thailand and involves releasing floating lanterns named krathongs into rivers and waterways to honor the water goddess and Buddha.

Sukhothai is one of the best places to experience the festival because it is the birthplace of the festival and holds the most prominent celebration, lasting for several days and nights.

Thailand has progressed through many changes and numerous influences throughout its history. The existence of multiple, separate, distinguished, and often co-existing Thai kingdoms has chiefly been responsible for establishing the multifarious Thailand we recognize today.
