With the joyous occasion, the streets are overflowing with merriment as families come together and neighborhoods enjoy a variety of activities that includes praying, thanksgiving, dancing, and the famous water throwing.

4. Loi Krathong Festival

Every November on the full moon of the 12th lunar month, the Thai community honors the water spirits and washes away the impurities of the past year with the Loi Krathong Festival. During this time, neighborhoods all over the country gather after sunset to a nearby body of water and launch scented candles on board small boats made out of banana leaves. With plenty of people participating in the solemn event, the lights from the lovely floaters emit an uplifting image of faith, renewal, and gratefulness.

5. Golden Mount Fair

Another reason to visit Bangkok every November is the Golden Mount Fair. Celebrated at the same time as the Loi Krathong Festival, the colorful festivity brings locals and spectators around walls of the Wat Saket or Saket Temple. Here, the structure's golden mount is covered with a red cloth as a carnival of performances, bazaars, and food stalls appear all around it. Brimming with attractions, excitement and amusement abound for visitors of all ages. Indeed, there are plenty of opportunities to take advantage of Bangkok vacation packages and visit the majestic city, and the Golden Mount Fair is certainly one of them.
