Pattaya 2011 - Culture on the Beach

As part of the Beach Festival, there was a cultural bazaar at the beachfront. Lots of stalls were set up to display local arts & crafts. There were also cultural displays and live cooking demonstrations. As far as festival bazaars go - this wasn't one of the best I've visited. It was a bit haphazard, and you don't really know what you are looking at as there was little information or signage. Still it didn't seem to dampen the spirit of the crowd one bit, as they were out for a great time.

At several locations, stages were set up for live performances and just as places for the crowd to party. And they did !

What is a festival without food ! There were lots of stalls selling all kinds of local delicacies.As I just had a big dinner earlier - I was too full to try anything unfortunately.
