More about Songkran

You must be wondering what happens during Songkran. The Songkran Festival in Bangkok 2020 is filled with traditions, rituals and celebrations. Thai people get together with their families and friends to enjoy some quality time and to celebrate the start of the New Year. Generally, mornings during the festival begin with merit-making. Thai locals visit temples and give food offerings to Buddhist Monks as a way to pay respect. Another unique tradition is pouring water on Buddha statues as well as the younger generation paying respect to their elders by pouring water on their hands.  This signifies that all your sins and bad luck are washed away and you are purified for the New Year.
