Songkran, the Thai New Year, is celebrated in every corner of Thailand, with other countries in the region also marking the event according to cultural and religious traditions. Most international visitors will probably associate Songkran with mass water fights and a raucous party atmosphere, but the origins and traditions are based on ancient Buddhist teachings. Centre Point Chidlom will be marking the occasion with themed decorations and also set up a Buddhist shrine where guests can sprinkle water on the Buddha statue according to tradition. The hotel team, dressed in traditional costumes on the 13/14th of April, will also distribute auspicious Thai desserts, including Luk Chub and Khanom Chan on the 13th of April. There will also be opportunities for guests to take photos to post and share, and as a special bonus, a free waterproof bag to protect purses, wallets, phones and cameras.
