'''Nakhon Phanom Province''' is in Isaan.

'''Nakhon Phanom''' (??????) is the provincial capital of Nakhon Phanom Province.

Understand

The location of Nakhon Phanom Province was once the Si Khotrabun Kingdom, the capital of which was situated on the present Laotian soil opposite to the sacred stupa, Phrathat Phanom. The legend said King Nanthasen passed away before many disasters ruined the city. Noblemen as well as people agreed to move to the opposite side of the river. With dense bamboo forest, the new city was called Marukkha Nakhon. By the year 43 AD, under the reign of Phaya Sumitratham, the prosperous kingdom renovated the Phrathat Phanom for the first time along with a grand celebration. A disaster stormed and emptied the city in the next two reigns. Marukkha Nakhon city was reconstructed on the left bank in 1257 and later renamed Si Khotrabun. In 1737, the city was moved to the right side of the Mekong River again, a slightly north of the old city. It was named Mueang Nakhon and underwent many times of relocation. In 1790, after the city ruler passed away, the city requested to be under the reign of King Rama I of Bangkok. It was then renamed Nakhon Phanom, which literally means the city of mountains.

Mirroring the Khmer architectural influence, the stupa has undergone many restorations. In 1942, the temple was honoured as a first-class royal temple.

    '''Illuminated Boat Procession (Huea Fai) (?????????????????????????)''' Held from the full moon day to the 1st day of the waning moon of the 11th lunar month, the procession always illuminates the Mekong River in front of the city hall.

    The dazzling procession is held to welcome the Lord Buddha back to Earth after preaching to his mother in heaven during the three-month period of Buddhist Lent. As part of the inherited tradition, the illuminated boat procession is among the numerous offerings to the Lord Buddha. The celebration has been handed down since ancient times.

    In the past, the illuminated boats were 10-12 metre long rafts made of a banana trunk or bamboo. The raft was loaded with desserts, offerings, flowers, joss sticks, with candles and lamps to illuminate it before being launched onto the river. Today, the boat is built to be larger and much more extravagant. And it impressively illuminates the river during the festival.

If the leader picks up a stick of the same colour, that means the spirit does not allow.

    The dancers will perform to the fast rhythm of drums and striking pestles painted in red and white.
