Beautiful Thai Unique Style, handicrafts from bamboo

It’s always great to learn other cultures through people’s stories or the things that they use. I must thank Steemit for creating this best platform, so I can see those things around the world from here…. For me, there are various things in Thailand that I would like to share with all of you as well.

For today, I would like to show you one of the things that can express Thai unique style, "handicraft from bamboo".

In the old days, we especially used the handicrafts from bamboo for household, baskets, bags, the instruments for fishing, etc. I think these are wisdom from our ancestor. We can find bamboo naturally around Thailand. It’s very cheap, it’s a beauty from nature and it’s no harm to us and environment.

Here are samples of the handicrafts from bamboo that are unique style of Thai people….

Hen coop in mini size – it is where we keep hen inside.

Round bamboo basket

Thai farmer hat – Most Thai farmers wore farmer hats to protect them from the sun in the old days.

Cha-Lom - it is the one what we put things inside, especially fruits, when we travel from one place to another place.

At the right side of the following photo, you will see "Kong" which we use for putting fish, frogs, etc. inside.

I think you can learn something about Thai culture through these things.

Last but not least, below is Tuk Tuk which is well-known among foreigners and popular vehicle in Thailand, especially in Bangkok. It's normally in short shape, but this is a long one. It is colorful and decorated beautifully, right?

These were what I have seen around MBK Center Building since my last visit. Hope you found them interesting! ;)
