Thai New Year
Thai New Year > This year, Thailand celebrates its new year, Songkran, over three days, starting on 13 April. Songkran - the water festival > If youre going to go to Thailand during the New Year festivities, prepare to get wet. Locals will use anything from water pistols to buckets and empty rubbish bins to soak each other, and anyone else in the vicinity. This three-day water-soaking fest is done without malice, as the smiling faces everywhere will attest.
