  Yommabaan

 

Thailand

Yommabaan are the beings who deal out punishment to the wicked in narok, i.e. the underworld. Buddhist theme parks like this one are found all over Thailand and are usually on the compound of a temple, and typically feature life-sized effigies from Buddhism, folklore and mythology.

 

These theme parks aim to propagate Buddhism in a visual manner and sections related to hell and its punishments are characteristically used for meditation purposes.
