Tai Dam Cultural Village & Museum ~ Loei

Traditional Clothes Tai  Dam
Visiting the Tai Dam Cultural Village & Museum in Loei (found in the Chiang Khan district) was a highlight for me, as well as my traveling group. But it's not really much of a destination in and of itself, so make sure you have some other things when doing this little road trip. Anyway ... The Tai Dam Cultural Village is home to an ethic minority that came to Thailand from Laos in 1905. Their traditional lifestyle has been maintained through their arts and crafts. The village center offers a range of old-weaving process. People more intent on an anthropological experience can stay with the Tai Dam in their village. Our group visited both the museum and gift shop area, as well as a place where the traditional roof roof is on display, and the former was definitely the more interesting attraction. The museum is a dusty 2nd floor area in the main house, and nothing much is explained in English, but it's easy to get the gist of it all. In the other main house you can try on traditional outfits, although they are made of heavy thick material, and are extensively layered,  At any rate, it's a great place to visit. I found myself drawn to this group of people and I love their colorful little woven cubes that are hung in patterned formations.
