KINNARI
Thai Pleasure fabulous creatures
Also known as Kinnaree
Half and half lady creatures
Is it a bird? Is it a man? No — it’s a half-bird, half-woman legendary creature.
These rather lovely figures have the bodies of beautiful women, but with wings and bird leg accessories. They can fly and love flitting about in a highly mystical manner.
They tend to hang out in the Forest of Himmapan, along with their male equivalents the Kinnara.
Versions of Kinnari can be found across the south-east bits of Asia, including Indonesia and Tibet. In India they have horsey cousins called the Kinnara.
