EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting ruins of Wat Sa Si, also known as Sacred Pond Monastery, illuminated during the vibrant festival of Loy Krathong in Sukhothai, Thailand. The ancient and historical columns stand tall against the twilight sky, creating a mesmerizing backdrop for this religious and cultural celebration. In November, as evening falls upon Sukhothai Historical Park, locals and visitors gather to pay homage to their ancestors and show gratitude to the water spirits. Seated peacefully amidst this architectural marvel is a Buddha statue that exudes tranquility and wisdom. The rich Asian heritage is beautifully showcased in this image, reflecting the deep-rooted Buddhist traditions of Thailand. The intricate details of the stupa and old city transport viewers back in time to an era where spirituality thrived. Loy Krathong is a significant event in Thai culture where people release intricately crafted floating baskets onto rivers or ponds as a symbolic gesture of letting go of negativity and starting anew. This festival brings together people from all walks of life who come together under one shared belief - unity through faith. As night descends upon Sukhothai province, these ruins become more than just remnants of history; they transform into sacred spaces that bridge past with present. This photograph encapsulates not only the beauty but also the profound spiritual essence that permeates throughout Southeast Asia's cultural tapestry.
