The Legend of Ban Flowers

There are various legends surrounding Ban Flowers, but they all narrate a poignant love story. The tale unfolds with a beautiful young girl named Ban, whose beauty captivates many suitors in the village. However, her heart is set on Khum, a poor but exceptionally talented young man. Their love is opposed by Ban's parents due to Khum's impoverished background. Ultimately, Ban's father arranges her marriage to a wealthier suitor. Unable to accept this reality, Ban leaves home one early spring morning to find her beloved. Fated yet unfulfilled, that day Khum is away buying buffalo. Ban searches tirelessly until she collapses. Where she falls, white flowers, the Ban Flowers, bloom, immortalizing the faithful and tragic love of the young girl.
