Phi Ta Khon Festival is held at Amphoe Dan Sai in May or June. Aside
from merit-making and a sermon, there is a procession bearing Phra

colourful ghost masks and join in the procession. The ghost costumes
derive from a local legend. Some believe that they are from the
Buddhist saga Phra Wetsandon Chadok.
