Makha Bucha Day is a Buddhist festival, which takes place every year, the night of the full moon of the 3rd month of the lunar calendar, it is a holiday.
"Makha" is the word Pali for the third lunar month, while "Bucha" means to honor or venerate.
I had the chance to return this year to Thailand just during this party and therefore to participate.
Lots of people to eat and walk in the market
Concretely, this means that around a temple, there is a large market where people come to walk, eat, buy clothes, but also to meet at the temple which they will go around 3 times with in their hands, a flower, 2 incense sticks and a candle.

As always in rites in Thailand, this is an opportunity to make many donations to the temple
On the square next to the temple, an amazing Thai rock orchestra plays all night.
