From Buddhist monks to Hollywood celebrities, people are flocking to Thailand to Wat Bang Phra, a gathering of people demonstrating the powers their tattoos have given them.
Yan tattoos are the source of these powers. CNN reported that, “Yan tattoos are becoming ever more popular in this mainly Buddhist country. It's an ancient belief dating back hundreds of years. Some think their tattoos provide protection at a time when there is such political turbulence and division in the country.”
It is cool to see tattoos in a different way, that they are perceived as a good thing rather as being a sign of rebellion. Whether or not the tattoos actually give the bearer super-human powers is up to the individual themselves.photos from CNN
