ประเพณีแข่งเรือ
Lanna Boat Races form part of the local Kathin religious ceremony traditionally held during the Ok Phansa, the end of the Buddhist Lent.
The races on the Nan River are colorful and unique because the racing boats are brightly decorated with imaginatively designed prows.
The cheering squads on the river bank are usually boisterous and plenty of fun.
The boat races are also meant to celebrate the black ivory, an age-old object of Nan Province.
