Ringing the Bell to Tell Time at Night in Nan Town http://www.hotsia.com > Traveling in Nan Province > Ringing the Bell to Tell Time at Night in Nan Town Travel trip in Nan Province, making merit with morning alms, Chiang Kham - Nan route, Nan-style vegetable topped rad na, mural paintings at Wat Phumin, travel to Thung Chang, Huai Kon, Huai Kon border market, Huai Kon international checkpoint - Nam Nguen checkpoint mr.hotsia Leisure travel I encountered two provinces that have night time bell ringing, Lampang and Nan provinces.
In Lampang Province, there are bells at various intersections and people ride bicycles to ring them at different times. But in Nan Province, they bring a metal plate along with the striker and ring it to tell the time at night. I don't know if they get paid or why they do it, even though every household has clocks, this tradition still remains. I am glad to have encountered it and hope it remains a unique identity of Nan Province for a long time. mr.hotsia April 2013 Ringing the bell to tell time in Nan town.
