RE: Market Friday: northern cultural festivity at weekend market.

in Proof of Brain2 years ago

Cheingmai is such a popular spot for Westerners, they love it! This was such an interesting post on the textiles and differences within Thailand. I love the different patterns, weaves, and the upscale to the more rustic clothing. I actually don't have a preference on which I like best, they both are beautiful and function in their own surroundings.

You made such a wonderful post this time, again. As usual. I loved it and the pictures are awesome! Thank you for taking us!~

#MarketFriday began as a way to reach out across the globe and learn about different cultures through their markets, especially local markets and farmers' markets, and eventually branched out and evolved over time from straight shopping to a cultural affair as it highlights how we differ and then again, how much we are alike. We have become a melting pot of culture, but it is still the Rituals, Festivals, food, architecture, and even your language/languages that separate us... Along with the fact that these things are normal for us. There are unwritten rules that rule our social behaviors. I see this as allowing for increased tolerance between cultures and nations, and opportunities to come together on an even playing ground. A strong culture can be beneficial to a country as it promotes unity, especially during a crisis, peaceful debate, and open dialogue. I have learned so much about all of you and it has been an amazing experience. I can only hope that learning about each other can help us work together for a peaceful world.

Thank you for being a part of #MarketFriday
