My Trip

On the full-moon night of the 12th lunar month (usually November), Thailand's most romantic festival, when krathong (lotus-shaped floats) are set adrift on rivers and canals. A season-only evening route touring lantern spots — the Chao Phraya riverside, Asiatique, and park lakes. A night strong in night views, photos, and romance.
