1. The time of the Songkran Festival in Thailand
The Songkran Festival in Thailand is held from April 3 to April 5, but in fact, the carnival will basically start on a small scale from 11 and 12, and it will peak from 13 to 15, and some places will last until 19!
Although companies, banks and many Thai-run shops in Thailand will be closed during the Songkran Festival, vendors on the side will sell everything needed for this outdoor wet party, including water guns, delicious food, soda and beer.
2. Bangkok Water-splashing Festival
In Bangkok, the sub-battlefields are generally Kau Shan Road, Silom Road, RCA, etc. Many hotels also have special swimming pool water-splashing parties. In these battlefields, people are fighting with water guns, basins, buckets, water balloons and anything that can be used as water splashing tools.
Kau Shan Road in Bangkok is a favorite place for European and American tourists, and it is also a backpacker's base camp in Bangkok. The battle situation is quite fierce, and it will never take more than 5 seconds to get wet from head to toe.
You are always welcome to go in and buy a beer at the gate of roadside bars, which will add another fire to your already high mood. Some bars will also send a DJ to the door to add fun to the carnival.
In short, coming here during the Songkran Festival means that you have to give up elegance, forget reserve, take off high heels and put on quick-drying short-sleeved shorts, even if you get soaked, you have to laugh.
being thrown to the ground? Then pour it back! !
Silon is actually a gay area, but in Thailand, a super tolerant country, there are not so many restrictions at all. Silon welcomes everyone! There are usually many Thai locals there.
During the Songkran Festival, the entire street of Silon, which is 5km long, will be closed as a battlefield. Fire engines will stop at the intersection, and hoses with thick bowls will rush directly at the crowd.
RCA, one of the most famous nightclub districts in Bangkok, is the full name of Royal City Avenue. Although it is only 611-711 meters long, it is synonymous with an old-school nightclub district and Bangkok nightclub.
During the Songkran Festival, it will also become a large disco scene.
Route66 and Flix &; Slim and other nightclubs will have large-scale Songkran theme parties, water cannons "strafe" crowds, and super electronic music blessings, and nightclub lovers can't say no here at all.
3. Chiang Mai Songkran Festival
There are several sub-battlefields in Chiang Mai, namely Tapemen in the east of the ancient city of Chiang Mai, where the largest and most lively Sunday night market is located; On the edge of the moat outside the ancient city of Chiang Mai; There is also Huaykaew Road extending from the northwest corner of the ancient city to the northwest.
In Tapemen sub-battlefield, you can also buy all the necessary equipment by the roadside. However, just like no soldier will go to the battlefield without weapons, it is suggested that all the necessary equipment should be prepared in advance. After all, only when the force value is up can the water fight be played happily ~
Some people bring weapons into the arena, but as a result, they are soaked before they can "load" ...
Besides, Chiang Mai is very popular with European and American tourists.
In addition, although this is an ancient city, the fighting atmosphere is not weak at all. The large-scale sound system on the roadside will definitely make the atmosphere of this large-scale Thai carnival manic!
Compared with other cities, the amount of water spilled in Chiang Mai is huge. After all, it is not too convenient to get water next to the river.
Another very popular place is Huaykaew Road, which extends westward from the northwest corner of the ancient city. There are four or five huge stages there every year, and the popular rock bands and pop bands in Thailand will perform live there. Coupled with DJ appearances, it can be said that the atmosphere never goes down.
Huaykaew Road is not too far from Ningman Road. People who revel during the day will gather there at night to continue their mania. Bars and nightclubs there usually hold some themed activities. Well, these activities are dry.
4. Pattaya Songkran Festival
Pattaya is the city with the longest carnival duration among all cities in Thailand. The warm-up starts around 11 and 12, officially starts on 13, and then the fierce battle will last until 19.
just playing with water is not enough? There is still a bubble carnival waiting for you here.
At that time, the beach road will be completely closed. You can find a big bucket or water tank in front of any bar, and the fire truck will also be everyone's supply station. The excellent live music and foam machine will ignite Pattaya, which is full of money.
European and American girls here will even start the carnival in bikinis. On the beach, there will be some sand sculptures, beauty contests and live performances.
If you can't get to Thailand between 13 and 15, you can consider going straight to Pattaya to get manic as long as it is before 19.
5. Phuket Songkran Festival
The most lively battlefields in Phuket are near Bangla and Beach Roads and Karen Beach in Patong Beach. Like Pattaya, girls will go into battle in bikinis directly, and they are very happy.
in phuket, the police will also change their guns into water guns and join the water splashing carnival. But as tourists, we'd better not "attack" the police at will.
6. Thai New Year's activities
Just like we all go home to get together with our families during the Chinese New Year, Thais will also go home to spend holiday time with their families during the Songkran Festival.
For them, during this festival, there are actually some other activities, such as cleaning at home, giving alms and doing meritorious deeds to monks in temples, sprinkling water on believers in temples, and slowly pouring water with flowers into their elders' hands. They think that this will get their elders' blessing, as well as some Buddha bathing activities, beauty contests and street snacks in various places.
7. Precautions for the Songkran Festival in Thailand
Use waterproof bags to protect valuables such as mobile phones, and important documents such as passports can be placed in the hotel safe;
pay attention to the safety of property and beware of pickpockets;
use public transportation to go to various water splashing sites;
white clothes will be more thorough when they are wet.
Don't throw water at monks, babies or old people;
don't use ice water, dirty water or boiled water;
Don't splash water on the motorcycle, which may easily lead to traffic accidents;
What's more, since we're going to the Songkran Festival, why don't we wear raincoats?
During the Songkran Festival, remember these two Thai words: Sawasdee pee mai = "Happy New Year" and Suksan wan Songkran = "Happy Water-splashing Festival".
Be happy to be splashed, and don't be afraid of being embarrassed. If you don't want to be splashed, you'd better stay indoors and only be active in the hotel.
There may be a white paste on your face during the Songkran Festival. Don't worry, it's made of talcum powder ~
8. Thai electronic syllables: 11,111 people get wet and have an electronic party
If the water fight doesn't satisfy you, then get to know about the wet and electronic carnival ~
S2O, which is the full name of S2O Songkran Music Festival, is the most awesome music festival in Thailand.
There is an excellent electronic music lineup, a fun music scene, cool lighting effects, and a huge water gun "shooting" blessing, and this outdoor wild dance lasts for three days. Which night shop coffee can refuse?
There are many well-known electric syllables in the world, but only Thailand has produced wet electric syllables! The interpretation of strength is "dripping"! (However, there is another syllable of splashing water and electricity in Thailand in September)
In S2O, girls can wear swimsuits directly as the backing because of its long duration, and boys had better choose clothes made of quick-drying materials.
In addition, flip-flops are also out of place in this kind of large crowd, with a high population density. If you are not careful, your feet will be "only flip-flops" ... In addition, don't forget sun protection and mosquito repellent ~
In the eyes of Thai people, splashing water is to wash away all misfortunes and have a new start. If you don't "start over" on New Year's Day and Spring Festival, please seize this opportunity to wash away the old dust!
after all, only by washing, discarding and clearing all the old wounds and remnants can we make room for new energy. Some carnival is sexy, some carnival is dangerous, some carnival calls for peace, some carnival calls for love and freedom, and Thai carnival is so straightforward, so simple and rude, so kind and caring-
You are here? So happy and lucky, please pick it up!
Can you dry your local wild vegetables?
