It is named after Naga mountain that towers over Khlong Muang. There is a nice and easy mountain trail going to the top at 500 m altitude. Many festival attendants make that trip to enjoy the magnificent view. Naga (pronounce Naak) is some sea goddess.

Is it too much to expect the writer of this article to mention the purpose of the festival?
