Loy Krathong is one of the most
popular festivals in Thailand. It takes place during the evening
of the full moon in November when people visit rivers and streams
to float their krathongs - leaf or flower-shaped cups that contains
flowers, candles and incense. Wishes are made and they must come
true if the candles remain burning until the krathongs float out
of sight. Lovers also send their offerings and hope their krathongs
remain close together as they float down the stream.
