on HM The King's birthday
On the evening of December 5, tens of thousands of people stroll
through the major avenues in the old city area, watching fireworks
and the lights hung in all the trees.

From left to right: The parliament building, the Rama V equestrian
statue, acrobats (some Thais 'make merit' by sponsoring acting or
acrobatic troops), and ornamental stands with rice that has been
blessed. The rice will soon be given out to the people for good
luck. |
