Surely many people do not know the history about big trees, although they live in Mahasarakham province.
There are many big trees in a village where should be a town of Mahasarakham province in the past. One of elder people in the village said that about 100 years ago Ladphatthana was a big village that there were many people lived in. Because Ladphatthana was located near Chi River, there were immigrants who moved from other provinces. In the village there was a chief. He always told his villagers that they should not cut down the big trees because there were satyrs who protect the trees and the village. Although the chief always told the villagers that do not cut the trees, but there were some villagers who did not believe in satyrs. They tried to cut down the big tree. The satyrs were very angry at them and burn the village. This was a cause why many people moved into the town nowadays.
Each tree is very big and tall that can be hold by 10 people. If you want to see the big trees, you can see them in Ladphatthana village. It is far from the town around 10 kilometers. All of the big trees are in a school named Banladphatthana School.
Now many people know the history about the big trees in Mahasarakham province.
