Thailand’s most joyful and refreshing celebration is here bringing together tradition, travel, and a splash of fun across the country.
Songkran marks the traditional Thai New Year, celebrated every April. Rooted in cultural heritage, it is a time for family reunions, temple visits, and paying respect to elders.
