Ordination Into The Monkhood
 In Thailand, young men usually spend a period of time in the Buddhist Monkhood. Buat Naag is the traditional procession and ceremony for entry into the Monkhood, and is attended by the man's relatives and close friends who make the event into a colorful, joyful and enjoyable occasion as the young man embarks on a period of study and meditation. |
Fingernail Dance
 The Fingernail Dance is a graceful dance which originated in the North of Thailand and is usually performed as a gesture of greeting and welcome. | |
Thai Boxing
