The culture of Thailand differs somewhat from region to region, as different ethnic or tribal groups provide differing traditions and patterns of living. Thai folk dances reflect these basic regional differences, and therefore an account of the dances arranges itself naturally according to geographic regions. Beginning with the north, which is represented by three dances, next four dances from the northeast, then three from the central provinces, and finally three from the far south. translated by M.R. Supraphada Kashemsant
