Thailand’s hill tribe people

A couple of years ago my wife and I went Chiang Mai and visited a hill tribe village, among other things. I took these pictures of of the Karen tribe and as you can see they wear amazing neck bands to extend their necks, hence the term the ‘long necked’ hill tribe.
We spent a good few hours in the village looking at the hand made goods that they had made to sell to the passing tourists. It was a fascinating day and we thoroughly our time there.
