All the Thai-styled houses must have one "Spirit house" inside.
These tiny and cute houses are used in the Buddhist culture to protect your home from non-invited spirits.
They are meant to provide a shelter for spirits that could cause problems for the people, if not appeased. The shrines often include images or carved statues of people and animals.
People often left offerings like food or flowers to gather these spirits and protect their houses from anything bad that could happen.
You can find them almost everywhere in Thailand, in public and private buildings. Beware of bad spirits!
