Chonburi Buffalo Races
Thailand's equivalent to the Kentucky Derby, Chonburi has a strong racing tradition based on traditional agricultural events. Farmers not only bring their buffalos, but also their eligible daughters to the festival. The Buffalos are dressed in colourful satin cloths and displayed on to the lawns of the Provincial Hall. The best decorated buffalo competitions generate almost as much excitement as the races.
