First time to visit Krung Thep (Bangkok) in Jan 2014
As being invited by a co-worker, we joined thousands of people to watch Buffalo Fighting in Hai Luu, Song Lo, Vinh Phuc. This event takes place every year as a traditional event of local people.
It was raining hard but this seemed not distract any audience. Some people took this opportunity to sell cardboard sheet...
and sell raincoat
Strong buffaloes were carefully selected and looked after one year before the Fight
Two buffaloes were fighting hard, it was hot and nervous like watching a football match...
Sometimes, these fighters did not want to fight but their owners are the Kings...
And also they did not know after this fight they would all be killed!
This is place to buy buffalo meat right next to the fighting stadium. The price is much higher for the buffalo that won the fight...
Our strong fighters was cruelly killed by skillful men using electrical equipments
Two men who just bought the head of one "fighter"...
What could be the feeling of the owners who trained and worked with these buffaloes?
