Photographs of life in Isaan, northeastern part of Thailand.
Isaan (อีสาน) is located on the Khorat Plateau, bordered by the Mekong River (along the border with Laos) to the north and east, and by Cambodia to the south. To the west it is separated from Northern and Central Thailand by the Phetchabun mountain range.
Poorest part of Thailand, Isaan has its own culture and language (called overthere 'Lao') a mix of Thai and Laotian. People are highly welcoming and food (even if highly spicy)…
I often asked myself why nobody has started a group about the cultural areas of famous temples and monasteries in Asia (and not only in Asia).
My inital contributions to this group are about Thai temples. Everybody is welcome to post pictures of Buddhist temples and monasteries. Buddhism and Hinduism are very often interfused in cultural monument, e.g. the famous Angkor Wat in Cambodia. Please also post your pictures of these famous places, but avoid posting more than 5 pictures at once.
In this group you'll find a collection of photos from the city, allowing visitors to "dive" into Bangkok so special mood ...
You can add architectural, streetlife or even street portaits shots.
Photos showing Nepalese people, kids, the landscape, mountains, summits, buildings, cultur assets and national treasures are invited to post in this group
YES - all what is different from the usual image of China, or Chinatowns, people, minorities, odd products, ultra modern and also retro stuff. Post extraordinary, amazing, particular, even shocking images....
NO! - Great Wall, Forbidden city, Shanghai panorama, red flags and such things notorically usual from the postcards.
No other limits.
All pictures from Cambodia, its history, its culture in and outside Cambodia, its landscapes, its ancient places and its people are welcome.
Cambodia has a bad young history and some photos showing for instance the killing fields or the museum from the S 21 prison in Phnom Phenh are better not posted public. I beg for your consideration for sensible visitors and particularly children watching delicate photos which shouldn't set as "public" postings - thank you.
