Best Riverside Spots to Celebrate Loy Krathong in Bangkok

Every November, Bangkok transforms into a city of light and tranquility as we celebrate Loy Krathong, one of Thailand’s most magical festivals. Under a bright full moon, people gather along the riverbank to release their beautifully crafted krathongs (delicate containers made from banana leaves, decorated with flickering candles and vibrant flowers). The ritual symbolizes getting rid of past misfortunes and making wishes for the future. Bangkok offers the ideal setting for an unforgettable Loy Krathong celebration. Whether you’re looking for a cultural evening or a modern feast by the river, you can feel the festive spirit here this year.
