About Thanakha Grinding Festival

Thanakha is a cream got from the bark of a Thanakha tree. Both Myanmar females and guys utilize it as a type of sun insurance. On Thingyan eye, young ladies crush Thanakha barks and roots with a sprinkle of water on adjusted stone pieces. With a specific end goal to help the occasion, young fellows play melodic instruments and move. After the thanakha is crushed into a fine cream, the general population go to adjacent pagodas and wash the Buddha pictures with it as a type of new-year great deed.

Thanakha has turned out to be such a necessary piece of Burmese culture, it is utilized as custom cover amid the customary celebrations. For instance, the Thingyan Water Festival established around Buddhist convictions. Sprinkling water at others is accepted to bring flourishing and joy. Amid the celebration, a conventional thanakha-production occasion happens where a gathering of young ladies crush thanaka bark and roots into a fine powder.

The ground thanakha powder is broken down in heavenly water to make a liquidy glue that is poured over pictures of Buddha. Moreover, it has assumed an imperative part in Burmese culture: thanakha remains as a bringing together image of social pride that is worn by all Burmese individuals.
