Thai Mask Dance on Chakri Day

The Khon masked play is a kind of classical dance drama in Thailand. It depicts episodes from the Ramakien, which is the Thai version of the Ramayana. Originally it was only for royal audience, but these days anyone catch watch and enjoy these plays. We went to watch this play at the Ancient Siam in Samut Prakan this morning. The event was put on as part of the celebrations for Chakri Day.
