The latest tourist attraction in my province is Chang Erawan, the giant Three Headed Elephant. As you drive along Sukhumwit Road from Bangkok to Samut Prakan you cannot fail to notice this 29 metre high elephant. If you count the building it stands on then it is 43.6 metres high! It only costs 50 baht to wander around the gardens and another 100 baht to enter the museum in the basement and then up to the belly of the elephant. One of its back legs is a lift to a viewpoint of the surrounding area. The stained glass window in this picture is the top of the base where the elephant stands. You can see all of this in the video.

People from Thailand celebrate their traditional new year with some of the biggest waterfights in the world. Everyone is fair game and for 3-5 days you cannot go out onto the streets without getting wet.

In Thailand, many men become monks for a brief period of time once they have reached the age of 20. This video shows a part of the ordination ceremony where the young man is taken around the bot three times on the shoulders of one of his relatives.
