Halal Food Hilal Town in South Thailand(27-31 July 2007)

Halal Food Hilal Town in South Thailand(27-31 July 2007)Starting in the first year of 2005, the festival was seen as a massive success and saw a big crowd of Muslim population on the island itself and even the nearby provinces like Phang-Nga and Phuket. They had a good time getting together and showed off their charm and hositality. The second year’s venue was relocated to the large Thalang Historical Memorial Site at Ban Riang in Theppkasartri area, on the north of the island as the PPAO is develoing it into a provincial historical site. This year’s third ‘Halal Food Hilal Town’ event will also be held at the same location during July 27 – 31 2007. Featured at the 5 day festival will be a great selection of food prepared strictly under the Halal requirements. Other interesting activities include cooking contests, bird singing contests, local arts and traditions like an ancient wedding, and folkore at the cultural ground. There will also be an exhibition and sale of local products from all 14 southern provinces, as Alee Kumban an organizing committee member explained. The highlight of the 5 day event is the light and sound show telling the tragic story of the legendary Princess Mahsuri and it is on every night. [Source from; thaisnews.com]
