Any street in Thailand is a mess of telephone and electricity wires. It’s a mystery to me how they keep it all working (most of the time).
The wires are a necessary evil of life, but they do interfere if you want to parade large candles. The solution is men with long sticks.
The red banner on the front of this candle indicated it had won something in the competition.
Along with the candles, there was music and there were dancing girls.
