August 12 Queen's Birthday (public holiday)
Celebrations for Queen Sirikit's birthday take place nationwide. The festively decorated public buildings in Bangkok are colorfully illuminated at night. Throughout the country school children clean sidewalks and unused areas. Most children wear their scout uniform, as the Queen is the patroness of the scout movement in Thailand. In many areas this day is used to plant trees along the streets.
