This festival is the traditional New Year celebration in Thailand, and people come together to celebrate the beginning of the solar calendar year and all the new beginnings it will bring.
Since Songkran is a time for cleansing and purification, people pour scented water on Buddha images, and the younger generation pours scented water over the palms of their elders’ hands, seeking their blessings for the upcoming year.
