I celebrated Songkran in Singapore (@ Golden mile a.k.a the miniature land of the Thais) this year with my mum as none of us could spare time to go back to Thailand and I actually enjoyed it cause in Thailand, its much more wild and sometimes dangerous for us girls especially, haha.
And if you're wondering what Songkran festival is all about, its actually one of Thailand's most famous & well known festival which is an important day marked on the Buddhist calendar to celebrate the beginning of the Thai new year. And it gets really wet and dirty when water and powder/sand are being involved! But hey, that's kind of the fun part haha. The best part is, anyone can join in! Not just the locals or Thai people.
Water is being used and thrown around on passer-bys to symbolise getting rid or washing away of whatever bad luck they may have and powder being smeared on one another for good luck and be blessed for whatever good things ahead :)
If you wanna stay clean and dry, don't come to Thailand during the first few days of the Songkran festival period as you'd definitely be aimed. To simply put it, NO ONE WILL GIVE CHANCE!!! Hahaha
Here's some photos I took when my hands were still clean and dry!
