Ban Bu: Last of the Khan Long Hin Artisans

Ban Bu: Last of the Khan Long Hin Artisans

Provided by Nation.

Discover Ban Bu, home to Thailand’s last artisans crafting the traditional Khan Long Hin, bronze bowls polished to a silver shine. With roots dating back to Ayutthaya, this rare craft faces challenges as fewer young people learn the skill.

Join Dr. Jariya Sangsajja, a fifth-generation heir, as we explore the craft’s history, production, and preservation efforts. Plus, try the fun Khon mask painting workshop, bringing Thai culture closer to new generations.


If you want an authentic cultural experience, Ban Bu is a must-visit!
