The incident occurred because I wanted to visit the Light, Sound, and Color festival at Prasat Muang Tam. I heard that this year's event was grand and spectacular, with many celebrities and performers participating. However, why was there so little publicity? By the time I found out when the event was taking place, it was almost the day of the event itself.
No problem, we are prepared for any situation. We have already booked a hotel and are now running to book bus tickets. Initially, we planned to go to Buriram because we thought it would be more convenient. However, I must say that going to "Nang Rong" is much closer. Moreover, NCA Air is currently testing a temporary stop at Nang Rong.
8:30 AM Depart from Bangkok and arrive in Nang Rong at approximately 2:00 PM. We checked in at the Nang Rong Budget & Boutique Hotel, also known as Nang Rong Hotel. You can read reviews here.
After collecting our belongings and taking a short break, the rental car arrived on time to take us to Prasat Muang Tam, the venue for the event. "Prasat Muang Tam" The Legend of Creation...The River of Life The Musical, which was held at the "Buriram Community Lifestyle" market. Wow! It was a light and sound show in the style of a musical.
As we arrived early, the "Prasat Muang Tum" performance, the legend of the creation... the stream of life, the musical, had not yet begun, and the ceremony to pay respects to Prasat Muang Tum had not yet started either. So we took a walk around the castle and the "Buriram Community Lifestyle" market. You can read about the history of Prasat Muang Tum at The Temple Without Origin...Prasat Muang Tum.
As the auspicious time approached, the procession carrying offerings began its journey. To learn more about the ritual offering ceremony at Prasat Muang Tam, the light and sound show, please visit The Offering Ceremony to the Deities of "Prasat Muang Tam": A Legend Brought to Life...The River of Life, The Musical at "The Way of the Buriram Community" Market.
After concluding our evening activities, we returned to the Nang Rong Hotel to prepare for our journey to the magnificent grandeur of Phanom Rung, also known as the Stone Castle. To delve into the history of this majestic stone castle, visit the following link:

Upon arriving in the city of volcanoes, one cannot miss the opportunity to admire the region's renowned volcanic products, namely the "Pha Phu Akatani," a fabric dyed with water derived from volcanic rocks. Read the story of this small piece of cloth that has transformed the local economy, as described in the article "Local Identity Fabric... Cotton Dyed with Volcanic Soil 'Pha Phu Akatani.'"
Buriram, a city situated on an extinct volcano, utilizes volcanic soil to produce the unique "Phu Akane" fabric. The essential ingredient for dyeing this fabric, "Phu Angkhan," is sourced from Khao Phra Angkhan. This mountain holds significant cultural and religious importance, as it is believed to be the resting place of the Buddha's ashes. For more information on the history and significance of Khao Phra Angkhan, please refer to the following article: "Worshiping the Buddha's Ashes on a Volcanic Peak: Admiring the Thousand-Year-Old Boundary Markers at Wat Khao Phra Angkhan, Buriram."
A short distance from Wat Khao Phra Angkhan, there is another interesting small school. This school teaches children what they want to learn, about living in the community and rural life. It is a school without classrooms, with only "Kru Li" and the fields. You can read about this school at "Small School in the Wide Field…Brightness in the Wide Field with Kru Li at Ban Thawan, Buriram" (https://th.readme.me/p/15348).
After a day at the small school in the vast field, it's time for dinner. Another local source of dinner with a wide variety of food to choose from would be the Tham Muad Tham Mo Market, a night market in the middle of Nang Rong town. You can read about this market with a difficult name at "Market" Tham Muad Tham Mo ..... Nang Rong Baan Aeng, Buriram
With full bellies, our eyelids grew heavy. Instead of spending the night at Nang Rong Budget & Boutique Hotel, we decided to switch locations and stay at Phanomrung Puri Hotel. You can read a review of this hotel here: Review of Phanomrung Puri Hotel.
After a restful night, we woke up feeling refreshed and ready to explore more of Nang Rong district. We had a little time left before we had to continue our journey, and we decided to visit some temples to learn about the local culture and traditions. Temples are a great way to experience the essence of a place, and Nang Rong has several beautiful and historic ones. You can read about our temple visits in our blog post: **Exploring Temples in Nang Rong, Buriram: Wat Khun Kong, Wat Rong Man Thet, and Wat Klang.**
While not located in Nang Rong district, the "Phu Man Fa Temple" is a nearby attraction worth visiting. Although still under construction, the temple offers a serene and picturesque setting with its bas-relief stone carvings reminiscent of ancient castle architecture. This concludes our 3-day, 2-night trip to Nang Rong, where we explored the captivating stone castles and the rich culture of Buriram. For more information on Phu Man Fa Temple, please refer to the following link: Buddhist Hermitage "Phu Man Fa", Chamni District, Buriram.
We would like to express our gratitude to the sponsors for providing accommodation and travel expenses.
