Songkran in Thailand’s most famous festival. An important event on the Buddhist
calendar, this water festival marks the beginning of the traditional Thai New Year. Water is an
important element of Songkran, especially in more recent times when the throwing of water has
become a huge part of the annual celebrations. If you’re visiting Thailand during this period, don’t
be surprised if you get splashed. Crowds of people roam around throwing buckets of water, using
water pistols and just generally soaking anyone in the vicinity. Appreciation of family is another
important aspect of the festival, with many Thai people making their way to their hometowns to
spend time with older relatives. Buddhists also visit temples throughout Songkran where water is
poured on Buddha images and on the hands of Buddhist monks as a mark of respect.
Without a doubt, Songkran is a hugely important festival to the Thai people but it’s also very
popular with visitors and many tourists specifically arrange their holidays around this unique event. Anyone and

winter was an uncertain and frightening time. Food supplies often ran low and, for the many people afraid of the
dark, the short days of winter were full of constant worry. On Halloween, when is was believed that ghosts came
back to the earthly world, people thought that they would encounter ghosts if they left their homes. To avoid
being recognized by these ghosts, people would were marks when they left their homes after dark so that the
ghosts would mistake them for fellow spirits. On Halloween, to keep ghosts away from their houses, people
