People of the Northeast are full of hospitality and full of life. It is reflected in how they make visitors feel like home by introducing them to several memorable festivals during the year. The Elephant Roundup, held in Surin, brings elephants to display their skills such as playing football. Exotic cultural festivals like the Phi Ta Khon where villagers wear masks made of sticky rice husks painted in bright colors. They are participating in entertaining processions to honor the spirit. The Rocket Festival or Boon Bang Fai , where enormous home-made rockets are fired in the hope of ensuring a plentiful supply of rain for next harvest. The beautiful Candle Festival in Ubon Ratchathani is where huge and imaginative candles are paraded on the streets.
The natural resources combined with the modern technology allow Nakorn Ratchasima Zoo to be one of the most modern zoos in Asia. The making of the habitat is so closes if not the same to the actual surrounding. I-San people like to have fun and Mor Lam, the indigenous music is the major source of entertainment.
