Boats float down the river in the illuminated boat procession competition on October 14, 2024 in Nakhon Phanom, Thailand. The illuminated boat procession in Nakhon Phanom, held at the end of Buddhist Lent, is an event along the Mekong River. Boats lit with patterns of candles and lanterns move down the river in honor of the Buddha and as a gesture for merit-making. Different districts compete to create boat displays with detailed and complex designs. (Photo by Lauren DeCicca/Getty Images)
