The mythical city of Lablae, located in Uttaradit Province, is a real place both geographically and historically. It's an ancient city dating back to before the Sukhothai period. However, the legend of "Lablae," a mysterious city with a strict rule against lying and inhabited only by widows, is a folk tale reflecting the local geography and moral lessons. Geography and Origin of the Name: It's a small district surrounded by mountains. Travel: In the past, the roads were winding and complicated, making it easy for unfamiliar navigators to get lost. Origin of the Name: "Lablae" means "invisible," because it's obscured by mountains and dense trees. Folk Tale Content: City of Widows: It's said to be a city inhabited only by women. Strict Rule: Lying is strictly forbidden. Turmeric Turns to Gold: A man who wandered in and married a woman accidentally lied (deceived his child), causing him to be banished. The turmeric he had given her turned into ordinary turmeric.

Show all Like telling a story from a long time ago... Amidst the complex mountain ranges of Uttaradit, there is a mysterious land hidden behind a veil of mist and dense forest. Outsiders called it "Muang Lab Lae," a land inhabited only by women, with a single strict rule: "No lying." One day, a young man from another city got lost in the deep forest. He traversed winding mountain ranges until he found a peaceful village. The inhabitants were all beautiful women. The young man fell in love with a woman from Muang Lab Lae, and they married and lived happily together, having a child. The city's rules were very strict; everyone had to speak the truth. The young man always followed them until one day, his wife went to gather vegetables in the forest, leaving him to care for their child alone. The baby cried incessantly, missing its mother. The young man tried to comfort the baby, but to no avail. In his desperation, he blurted out, "Quiet, child! Mother is coming!" Immediately, the atmosphere around them became silent... The villagers who heard were saddened, for the young man had violated the city's strict rule. When his wife returned and learned what had happened, she wept profusely. No matter how much she loved her husband, law was law. The hidden city could no longer tolerate liars. The wife reluctantly banished him from the city. Before leaving, she filled a bag with turmeric rhizomes and strictly warned him not to open it until they were beyond the mountains. The young man, heartbroken, left the city, trudging through the dense forest. His bag grew heavier and heavier, and he grew irritated, thinking, "Why did they give me these turmeric rhizomes? They're heavy and worthless!" He began throwing away the last rhizomes, one by one, until only one remained at the bottom. Upon reaching his village, he finally opened the bag, and his eyes widened in disbelief and regret. The last remaining turmeric rhizome… had turned into pure gold! Driven by greed, the young man hurried back the way he came to retrieve the gold and desperately tried to find his way back to his wife and child in the hidden city. But no matter how many days and nights he wandered, he never found his way back to the city again…
