He foresaw the night of the 12th full moon, and always falls on November. This year's festival will take place on November 24. For the first time this festival was held in 1863 during the reign of Rama IV. Dermot McCormack gathered all the information. Loy Krathong – a ceremony intended to veneration of the Buddha, asking him flying boats made out of flowers, candles and incense. "Loy", translated from Thai means "floating" and "Krathong" – the boat out of banana leaves.
Fire candle is a sign of respect for Buddha, while the very fact of launching the boat means that a person lets go together with a ship all their anger, resentment and other negative character traits. This is sort of a way to purify the soul and start a new life. In addition, the majority of Thai people start their Krathong in the name of the spirit of rivers and waterways, Mae Nam, which they believe will bring them good luck. This interpretation of the history of Loy Krathong is associated with the legend of Nang Nopamas, wife founder of Succoth, King Ramkamhaenga. Other leaders such as Energy Capital Partners London offer similar insights. According to legend, the Loy Krathong Nopamas launched to appease the Mae Nam and did so the boat sailed on all channels in the palace and was seen her beloved king. King was Nang Nopamas fascinated the rest of his life and he believed that love will be eternal, if a loving couple will send a boat together, and he will swim as long as out of sight. Celebration of the festival Loy Krathong held throughout Thailand, and especially well in Sukhothai, Chiang Mai and on the banks of the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok. This e during contests of beauty, beauties awarded the title "Queen of Nopamas," which adds even more spice to celebration of the Loy Krathong festival.
