HIGHLIGHT THAILAND -- NORTH EAST  

  
   Million years ago during the Triasic and Jurasic period,when dinosaurs still dominated this planet, this region was just lowland  
    and also undersea land in some parts. It was lifted up to be the plateau by a later great movement of the earth plates. Many lifes  
    had lived in this region as we have been discovering many evidences of lives, from the fossils and footprints of the gigantic  
    dinosaurs, the coffins and the painting of pre-historical man of 3000-4000 years ago, to the ruins of the Khmer influence during  
    the 10th-13th century.  
   When the North-eastern region was unified as a part of Siam, people here were quite far away from the  cental control and  
    development. The climate was kind during the rainy season when they can grow their agricultural products but was so cruel  
    during the dry season when even the water from some big rivers dried out the the bottom. These seasonal condition implants  
    in them many characters. They are the real fun lover as they will enjoy their lives shortly once a year during the water season.  
    The dry season makes them so tolerated and adaptive to the cruelty of climate.  
    This region of Siam is really attractive to those who are curious to see evidences of lives and culture of people from different  
    period. The local way of living is also charmful especially during the rice growing and harvesting season when may ritual  
    ceremonies are performed to assure the pleasant climate.
