Thai Lady in Dvaravati Costume 🇹🇭

Lovely Thai Lady in the Traditional Costume of Dvaravati Period

 

Dvaravati is an ancient kingdom of Mon people in the area of nowadays Thailand flourished from the 6th to the late 11th century. Dvaravati culture was heavily influenced by the Indian, and played an important role in introducing Buddhism and particularly Buddhist art to the region.

 

The Cambodians have copied the style of Dvaravati costume from Thailand and imagine that it is the Chenla or Funan costumes.
