A krathong is small container or basket made of banana leaves, adorned with flowers, incense and candles. Loy Krathong means “to float a basket” which is what many people do during the festival on one of the three days.
The Thais see this as a time to wave goodbye to misfortune, wash away sins of the past year, and make wishes for the coming year. Often people will say a prayer before launching the krathong.
For the romantic at heart or young couples, Loi Krathong is the time to make a wish for happiness together. watching the route that a krathong takes is a popular way for couples to predict what the future holds for their relationship.

This Zhuang ethnic minority village is located high in the Longji mountains. These rice terraces were constructed by the Zhuang minority people to make their mountainous land arable. With construction beginning in the Yuan dynasty (1271-1368) and lasting over 400 years, the Dragon's Backbone rice terraces now cover over 16,000 acres.
