==Superstitious beliefs== {{Main|Crossroads (folklore)}} In Thailand, three-way junction was called in an old word ''Sam Phraeng'' ({{langx|th|สามแพร่ง}}, {{IPA|th|sǎːm pʰrɛ̂ŋ|pron}}). Sam Phraeng is unsuitable area according to the beliefs of Thai people since ancient times on account of it is a passageway of ghosts or demons, therefore, normally no one will build a house or residence in the Sam Phraeng area. This belief also appears in China, Japan, and Korea.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=2157272557904302&id=1736359789995583&set=a.1771454763152752|work=Facebook|language=thai|title=ทางผีผ่าน|author=Urban Creature|date=2018-08-19|accessdate=2024-06-01|trans-title=The ghost's path}}</ref>
