Rose Garden and Thai Cultural Show - Bangkok Thailand
Rose Garden and Thai Cultural Shows ; Enjoy the unique and unforgettable experience of the world-renowned Thai Village Cultural Show. Daily, over 150 performers vividly portray a fascinating cross-section of Thailand's culture, heritage and way of life -- dances, ceremonies, rituals, sports and pastimes. The show highlights are:
Thai Martial Arts: Thai-style boxing is extremely popular in Thailand. Accompanied by its unique ritual and ceremony, it is an art that demands a high degree of skill and fitness.
Thai Wedding Ceremony: Witness a traditional Thai wedding ceremony performed according to ancient Thai customs.
The Monkhood: In Thailand, young men usually spend a period of time in the Buddhist Monkhood. To mark a young novice's entry into the monk-hood, the Buat Naag ritual consisting of a traditional procession followed by the ordination ceremony is performed.
The Fingernail Dance: The Fingernail Dance is a graceful dance which originated from the North of Thailand. It is usually performed as a gesture of greeting and welcome.
Dance From The North East: A mixture of North Eastern dances which collectively and symbolically express greetings and good luck.
Bamboo Dance: Another North Thailand dance, which is usually performed during the the full moon. It requires great skill, practice and timing. Even a small slip can be very painful.
Kala Dance: The Kala Dance comes from the southern part of Thailand. The dance features coconut shells and reflects the importance of coconuts in everyday village life.
