Songkran is a significant occasion on the Thai calendar for both spiritual and social reasons. The whole country celebrates the festival and due to the public holiday, it is a time when families get together and enjoy each other’s company. From a religious perspective, Songkran is the time to wash away any problems from the previous year and start afresh. This very special event features on many Hindu and Buddhist calendars across the world and is celebrated according to local traditions. Away from the spiritual side of things, Songkran is a time to party and enjoy the atmosphere and the various activities, food, and water splashing that makes it a fun event for all concerned.
