Beutiness of Mahabu in Dailekh Nepal High and dark lakes all around. Huge stone in the middle of the nearby beautiful roof. On top of that, there is an idol of Shivalinga for worship. The beautiful roof is darkened by clouds for a while, and when the flowers are shaken by the wind with the dripping water, anyone who reaches there feels like he has reached heaven. Anyone who reaches Mahabu, where the weather is changing in an instant, feels happiness. The pond in the lake and the flowers blooming around it make it even happier. Even though the sun shines with the sunrise in the morning, fog and mist cover the roof for a while. Special worship is performed at Mahavudham on the day of Raksha Bandhan. Thousands of devotees who have come to worship at Mahavudham, who have taken their aspirations with the lurking of the sun and fog from time to time, rejoice. Most devotees carry their mobile phones or cameras to capture the fog and the sun. After the sun removes the fog and mist, you can see
Sex tourism in Thailand
A major part of sex tourism is prostitution. This has been common in Thailand for centuries – as far back as the Ayutthaya Kingdom (1351-1767), prostitution has been documented. It was legal and taxed then, but has been illegal since 1960.

Statistics for sex tourism in Thailand are hard to come by. Estimates suggest there are anywhere between 250,000 and 2 million sex workers in the country. Global black market database Havocscope puts the number at the lower end of that scale, with the equivalent of $6.4 billion being brought in. But other surveys and organisations place the number much closer to the 2 million mark.

Either way, sex tourism in Thailand is a big deal. It is said, though these statistics are difficult to confirm, that 60% of visitors are male – with 70% of these males being sex tourists. Because sex work and prostitution was legal in Thailand until the early 60s, it was a popular place for it. And just because there are laws in place now, the sex industry is something people still associate with the country; it’s a vicious circle. (Buy vibrators and sex toys at Atbuz)
Prostitution was legal in 1960 in Thailand. Brothels were run by the state. Everything changed and there are now three different acts that given prostitution and sex tourism in Thailand.
Prevention and Suppression of Prostitution Act (1996) This places the responsibility on the ‘client’ .Those found to be soliciting sex or sexual activities are fined, and if doing so in a “prostitution establishment” can face a jail term. The law is not usually enforced in private places, but owners of prostitution businesses received heavier penalties too.
The act has a particular focus on child prostitution/trafficking. Punishments vary, getting worse as the age of the sex worker gets younger. Traffickers themselves receive heavier fines and long prison terms, too.
