Kham Chanod draws crowds for spiritual rituals and luck
Crowds seek blessings and lottery luck
Kham Chanod, a renowned spiritual site in Udon Thani province, recently attracted a large number of visitors eager to pay their respects to the revered spirits of Grandfather Srisuttho and Grandmother Pratumma.
The influx of tourists coincided with a long weekend, culminating yesterday, July 13, as people sought blessings and good fortune ahead of the upcoming workweek starting today, July 14.
Many tourists visited Kham Chanod Island, located in Ban Non Mueang, Ban Muang subdistrict, Ban Dung district, to participate in the spiritual rituals.
The island was bustling with activity as visitors flocked to the shrine of Grandfather Srisuttho and Grandmother Pratumma, hoping to gain auspicious favour through their prayers.
Visitors not only engaged in spiritual activities but also stopped by nearby lottery stalls to purchase tickets, hoping for a stroke of luck in the mid-July draw, a month also marking the Buddhist Lent. A particularly sought-after number was 728, which has become so popular that it vanished from all lottery stands.
Additionally, at the nearby Sirisuttho Temple, volunteers and temple committee members set up tents to encourage tourists and Buddhists to participate in charitable activities.
They organised a candle-pouring event where participants poured wax into nine candles, symbolising the offerings made to nine temples during the Buddhist Lent festival.
