Local villagers celebrate the end of the annual Buddhist Rains Retreat by creating miniature beeswax Buddhist temples and shrines ('wax castles'), in the belief that accrued 'merit' enables them to personally determine their future rebirth.
After their creations have been ceremoniously paraded throughout the provincial colorful annual regatta is staged, Festivities normally last 4 days.
