April
This is the height of Bangkok's hot season, so it should come as no surprise that the
Thais have a festival that revolves around splashing water on each other.
Songkran
Songkran is the Thai New Year, and although it has origins in a religious practice of
'bathing' Buddha images, today's celebrations resemble a citywide water fight. The most
intense battles are fought on Th Khao San - don't carry anything you don't want to get wet.
