Ganesh Chaturthi, the festival celebrating the birth of Lord Ganesha, took place at the Kali Temple in Pattaya today, September 10th, 2024.

Mr. Phakhin Methayapha, the temple administrator, shared that after managing the temple for 16 years, he has faced many challenges but continues to organize the festival each year due to his dedication and the support of worshipers.
