Surin Elephant Festival (Thailand)

I’m going to introduce you contents of this festival. This is like an elephants’ show!
Show is beginning!
This is opening parade. About 280 elephants walk around slowly.
Next, elephants do a lot of performance.
They stand like us. They play with circle. They play soccer.




















A rope pulling contest is also held.
This game is 70 people vs ONE elephant! Of course, one elephant win the game.
At last, finale starts.
Elephants go out of the stadium given a big hand clapping and walk along the city street.
After the parade, we can ride the back of elephants!As you can see, this festival has the old history, traditional costume, and great shows! Thailand is far from Japan, but if you go there, you must be able to make a pleasant memory! Why don’t you go this festival?
