YASOTHON BUN BANGFAI FESTIVAL THAILAND
The Bun Bangfai or Rocket Festival is an ancient important festival, well known in I–San. It takes place annually in the sixth lunar month to worship Phaya Thaen (God of Rain) to give plentiful rain for the coming planting season. Rockets or Bangfais are fired to pay respect and show loyalty to the God for fertility and security. The festival also creates love, unity and participation of local people because the activities such as the Bangfai procession and contest need the community co–operation for joy and fun.
