The village of Bor-sarng, Chiang Mai THAILAND has earned renown for the art of umbrella making for more than 200 years. Nobody knows why umbrellas are found in this particular village or from where the craft originated. It is widely speculated that the skill originated in China, but who brought it to Chiang Mai and for what purpose is a mystery. In legend, it is said that a Buddhist monk on pilgrimage to Sipsong Panna, which now forms a part of Yunnan Province in China, learned about the art which he brought back with him on his return to the green fields and hills of Lanna (former name of Chiang Mai). This umbrella was made entirely of Saa (mulberry bark) paper, attached with rubber and suffused or coated with oil to help repel both sunshine and rain in many different sizes and colorfully painted with flowers and landscape view scenes of various kinds. Bor-sarng umbrellas have been transformed into one of the symbols of Chiang Mai.
