Princess graciously marks Asalha Bucha Day
Her Royal Highness Princess Bajrakitiyabha Narendiradebyavati attended a religious ceremony on behalf of His Majesty King Maha Vajiralongkorn yesterday (July 5) at the Emerald Buddha Temple (Wat Phra Si Rattana Satsadaram) within the precincts of the Royal Palace in Bangkok’s Phra Nakhon district.
July 5 was Asalha Bucha Day of Buddhist Era 2563, when Thai Buddhists mark the occasion by making merit at temples and circling these places of worship with lit candles in the evening. Today (July 6) is Buddhist Lent Day, when Buddhists present offerings to monks who have stayed at their temples for the rainy season.
