What is Songkran in Thailand?  The Songkran Festival is also known as the Thai New year or Thailand Water Festival, originally celebrated as a way for the Thai people to sprinkle water on their family members and elders for good fortune and pay their respects to images of the beloved Buddha. Today, the festival has transitioned into 3 days of water play fun, splashing locals and visitors alike with buckets of water, water hoses and super soakers as they gather in the streets.  Songkran 2015 festival will take place on April 13th through the 15th, a festival that is the country’s traditional New Year’s Eve celebration.
