Long Boat Racing Tradition
This picture is a traditional long boat competition festival in Thailand.
It is an old tradition usually held during September to October, when the water level in the river is highest.
The boat used was made of wood, up to 30 meters long, and beautifully decorated the prow.
This race is part of the celebration of Apostolic. It represents the unity and strength of the rowers.
In addition to being a sporting event, it is also an inherited tradition to worship rivers and local sacred things.
