2010 NAKHON RATCHASIMA BUDDHIST LENT CANDLE FESTIVAL AND PROCESSION July 26 – 27, 2010





The 2010 Nakhon Ratchasima Buddhist Lent Candle Festival and Procession will be staged on a grand scale during July 26 – 27.

The event will showcase Buddhist art in the form of sculpted and moulded Buddhist Lent candles which will be presented to local temples as Buddhist merit-making offerings for the Buddhist Lent or Khao Pansa.

The magnificent works of candle art will depict various themes such as scenes from the life of Lord Buddha and Buddhist tales, tributes to His Majesty the King, cultural themes, traditions and the various cultural highlights of Nakhon Ratchasima province.

The Buddhist Lent Candle Procession, the night procession of illuminated candles along Asdang Road and a light-and-sound presentation are the key highlights of the two-day festival.

Visitors to the event are also invited to participate in Buddhist merit-making by presenting ritual offerings to Buddhist monks.

In addition to the sculpted and moulded candle contests and the candle procession contest, other attractions include a food festival offering a great variety of local delicacies and folk entertainment, especially stage drama.
