Once a month, seven Hill Tribes gather to buy, sell, and trade. This was a particularly festive market day as it was also Independence Day, the day celebrating the withdrawal of US Troops.

All of the single girls wear their traditional tribal dress and colors. And they are bedecked with all of their finest silver jewelry. Which also serves as a dowry of sorts. This young woman was striking, naturally beautiful, plus adorned in all her finery.
