Beautiful Sunday and Sublime Sunday - Thailand Village Festival !!

in #beautifulsunday6 years ago

My last Sunday's adventure was quite a unexpected one i decided to go for a walk at one of my favorite parks not far from my apartment i will always find something interesting going on in this park and you wouldn't believe it there was a Thailand Tourist Festival 2019 happening the whole park was taken up by this festival and my body was shaking with excitement just like a little kid couldn't wait to get in amongst all this action.

To be honest with you i had never heard of this particular festival and i didn't know what i was going to be walking into but it sounded like the festival was pumping away with good vibes.

As soon as i got into the park i could see a huge stage there in front of me with loud laughter coming from this crowd of people sitting on these benches under this massive tree , there was a Thai comedy show going on. It looked funny with all the action they were doing but i couldn't really understand so i walked around the back of the stage and noticed these beautiful young ladies doing a pratice warm up before going on stage so i decided to hang around and watch this show , after i had take some photos of these performers i move back around to the front of the stage and find myself a good spot.

Moving back around to the front of the stage it had got more crowded and the atmosphere felt great i could hardly wait to see these beautiful performers do there village custom Thai dancing and acting.

These dance performances were of celebrations in victory of wining the war between Siam and Burma. Bangkok city was known as Siam city before the war after the war Siam city was replaced by the name Bangkok city which is what we know it as today.

I had not arrived at this park to late afternoon and there was so much to see and already after this performance it was starting to get dark but that didn't worry me there was plenty of lights around the park to brighten up the evening and next were these unbelievable band of drummers mixing it in with a bit of comedy.

What i had worked out is that all the villages from the North , South and the East have all come together in one big area to show not only the Thai people but the tourist of the world there way of culture from these village and with them come all the traditional ways of there costumes , singing and dancing. This was awesome the only thing i was upset about was i had only caught this festival on it's last day of it's last few hours and i had to move around quickly to try and see a bit of performance from every village.

Eastern Village with the Techno and Hip Hop music in Thai and Western.

wow sir hangin! what a fabulous find that was, to come across that festival going on, the sights of that are remarkable! You were definitely in the right place at the right time, great job!

I have seen many festival in Thailand but i got to say this was the best i have seen i just wish i had known about it early or well it will happen again next year and i will be marking it on my calendar :)

yes sir, mark that on your calendar because that was amazing!

I will do and i have another part to that festival which i will be putting up tomorrow for @marketfriday :)

oh yes! I know about that tag. Well there are tons of markets going on all around you in Thailand isn't there? Should be an easy post!

Yep always something to write about Thailand they say Thailand is like one big kitchen there is food in every corner you turn and entertainment everyday of the week...lol :)

ha! yes sir hangin and also there is entertainment all night long too, right? At least some parts of the cities never sleep.

Certainly right about that it's the city of angels it never sleeps...lol :)

Wow this is amazing, so many vibrant colours and amazing outfits - the Thailand Tourist Festival looks like an incredible event - I wonder if @roundbeargames got chance to check this out?

My favourites are those king/warrior outfits with the amazing painted face plates - such ornate and detailed outfits.

cool man :) i wasn't at bangkok tho. i was more interested in food and temples anyways 😆
but thailand is sure an awesome place

The foods you would have loved here foods from all the provinces of the north , eastern and southern just amazing :)

yes probably. i was in chiang mai only for 4 days but i enjoyed all the foods i had.

You can never go wrong any where in Thailand as they say Thailand is one big kitchen and Chiang Mai is a great place also :)

This was definitely one of the most amazing festivals i have even seen where all the provinces came together to put on the most amazing performance as with shows and food the only disappointment was that i didn't get enough time to see it all as i only learned about this event on the last day and was a few hours to closing time but i won't miss it next year and i agree them those king/warrior outfits really amazing :)
