Karen Tribe (Long Necks) Mae Hong Son Thailand.
The "Long Neck Tribe" in Mae Hong Son, Thailand, typically refers to the Karen people, specifically the subgroup known as the "Karen Padaung" or "Kayan Lahwi." These groups are known for the tradition of women wearing brass rings around their necks, which gives the appearance of elongated necks.
The practice of wearing these neck rings is part of their cultural tradition and has been a subject of curiosity and fascination for tourists. However, it's important to approach this cultural practice with respect and sensitivity, as some have raised ethical concerns about the commercialization and exploitation of these communities for tourism.
The Karen people have a rich cultural heritage beyond the neck rings, including traditional weaving, music, and agriculture. Visiting these communities can be an opportunity to learn about their culture, but it's essential to do so in a responsible and culturally sensitive manner, supporting ethical tourism practices and respecting the communities' privacy and dignity.
