The American Embassy offered a package to a must see show Siam Niramit. A few of us decided to see the show. It was ladies night out. Frieda, my neighbor and I took our first Tuk-tuk ride (an open motorized tricycle) to meet the bus. We met Kelly and Janice on the bus. We ate a dinner buffet and after words toured a village of many classic Thai style houses from each Thai region. Many houses are open to the elements. They had small regional desserts at the houses and people demonstrated and displayed local crafts. Some of the crafts displayed were weaving, the water buffalo hyde marionettes (elaborate detail), and a woman chanting a luck ceremony gave us each a string bracelet for good luck. They also offered elephant rides and a klong (boat) ride, neither of which we took.
The show is extremely elaborate with vibrant costumes and live animals on stage goats, chicken, and even two elephants paraded across the stage. There are three acts showing the Journey Back into History, Journey Beyond Imagination and Journey Through Joyous Festivals.The stage is in the Guinness World Record book, it is approximately 8 stories high.
If you come to Thailand I would recommend it.
