Silk Making
If you've never seen how silk is made
then it's worth seeking out some of the small villages where the locals
still do things the old fashioned way. Ban Pa Ngat, where most of
these photos were taken is famous for it's silk which now, following advice
from HM The Queen, only uses natural dyes rather than chemical dyes favoured
by most silk makers. Thai princess,HRH Ubolratana, is a regular
visitor to the village.

ask a Chinese person to explain the relevance to you.


Silk Village





This village is one of the ever
decreasing number that farm their own silkworms.




A dam - this one is north of Khon Kaen,
nice spot for lunch
