Yon Bua Festival
Held by Bang Phli residents, this “Yon Bua” or “Tossing the Lotus” festival is a long merit-making tradition on the 14th day of the waxing moon of the 11th month (around October). Large crowds of people wait to toss lotuses onto a boat bearing a Buddha image, sometimes covered with a floral tribute almost up to the statue’s head.
