KAREN WOMEN NTH.THAILAND |
This card shows the"Long Neck" of Thailand .all washing their feet .. I saw these long neck women also when I was in Burma. very unusual.
Nai Soi is a small village located in Mae Hong Son Province in northern Thailand and is under the administration of the Thai authorities.The town is well known for the refugee camp that is there and has the biggest "Karenni" settlement of the three villages. Nai Soi is also home to a large population of "Kayan" people in Thailand in the last 20 years the Population of Kayan people has grown to 520 the Kayan are a sub group of the "Karenni" minority in Burma. The Kayan women are famous for wearing brass rings around their necks giving the illusion of an elongated neck. Not all Kayan women wear the brass rings..
Once again thank you Parco for this really colourful and nice card from this area in Thailand.
