Ban Khok Mo Local Weaving Center, Chainat

The traditional fabric weaving hub of Ban Khok Mo, situated in Thap Than Subdistrict, has been home to Laotian settlers who migrated from Vientiane since the early days of the Rattanakosin period. Their weaving expertise has been a cherished cultural legacy passed down for over two centuries. Following the completion of their agricultural duties, women in the village meticulously weave fabrics, crafting Pha Mudmi Thin Chok, Pha Yok Dok, and intricate ancient designs like Lai Dan Mueang Lao, Lai Nak, and Lai Dan Yai.   For further details contact, Ban Khok Mo Local Weaving Center Tel.
