Loi Krathong Day is a holiday that honors Buddha and focuses on releasing negative thoughts and feelings.
It is also a day of thanksgiving to the water goddess Phra Mae.
People of Thailand, Laos and other Buddhist majority countries place a Krathong, a decorated boat made of bread or styrofoam, into a river, pond, or lake. This action symbolizes the release of negativity. The boat's decor includes banana leaves, incense sticks, and a candle.
It's a beautiful spectacle, especially for those unfamiliar with the custom.
