Pilgrimage to That Phanom

Was visiting with friends in Khok Si Suphan, a town 22 km from Sakon Nakhon when I saw this procession. Barefooted monks on an apparent pilgrimage.

They were on their way to That Phanom to pay homage at a revered temple there.

I observed an almost unending column of monks for over half an hour before they disappeared in the distance, they had over 80 km to go.
