Alongside an historical image as a center for trade, Uthai Thani has also been blessed with abundant natural resources and forests . Certain areas are richly inhabited by a variety of wildlife. And in the most remote ares, ethnic peoples such as The Morn Karen and Loa live peacefully and harmoniously with nature. They migrated here in bygone days when horses and elephants were the main means of transportation.
The ethnic people have different ways of life, customs and beliefs, as well as unique characteristics . Many have assimilated to such an extent that they cannot be distinguished from each other, while others share particular lifestyles, but differ in rites and rituals. The diversity of the ethnic peoples adds and extras dimension of beatuty and color to Uthai Thani
Most of the ethnic peoples' customs and beliefs are related to their way of life from birth to death. a large part of their beliefs, including percepts of Buddhism, involves faith in some supernatural power. Thsi can always be seen from the customs related to spirti-worshippoing or trances such as the Phi Khaek, Phi anang dong, Phi Nang Kwak and The Ling Lom trance.
