HISTORY OF THAILAND
Called the 'Ghost Festival' of Thailand because of its embrace of the macabre, Phi Ta
Khon takes place in the small town of Dan Sai. It is a three-day celebration marked
by colourful masks. These masks are painted in gaudy, eye-catching colours along with
large phallic noses. It typically takes place in the 6th full moon of the Lunar calendar
which occurs in June or July. As the legend goes, Phi Ta Khon is meant to be a
party so fun that both the living and death want to attend. Locals believe that the
loud noises will awaken the spirit of the Mun River who protects their town
