The elephants have been lived in Thailand for many centuries. In Thailand they are important for battle. The kings was fighting by mounting on elephants many occasions.

The white elephant is included in the flag of the Royal Thai navy, and the "order of the white elephant" is one of the highest honours, bestowed by the king. The white elephants, in fact, are very rarely completely white. The skin has to be very pale in certain areas to qualify as a "white elephant"




The Kinnari is one of the loveliest of the mythology beings,a beautiful half-woman, half swan, with the head and torso of a woman yet below the delicately tapered waist she has the body, tail and legs of a swan. She also has both human arms and the wings of a swan. While the Kinnari has a male counterpart (the Kinnara) and is similar in form, it is less beloved by Thai artists. The Kinnari is renowned for her excellence in song and dance and her graceful form is often seen in sculpture and temple murals.








The Hong is a bird of infinite grace, and the Thai saying: "Ngaam onchoy tiap dang hong" -- as beautiful and graceful as the Hong. The head and neck of the Hong can be seen on the prow of the magnificent royal barge, the Suphannahong. The Hong is also auspicious animal, portending of miracles. Nothing can match the grace of the Hong , for this great swan-like bird has a poise and delicacy beyond compare and its name is used in a modern Thai expression denoting unsurpassed beauty and grace.
