Songkran Festival 2018 was Successfully held in Bangkok – Splashy April Fun

A splashy celebration of the Songkran festival took place this year in Bangkok. It is indeed the holiday of the year where all offices and banks close to taking part in the traditional activities during this holiday that is usually celebrated between the 13th and 15th of April. If you were lodged this holiday at one of many Bangkok city hotels such as the likes of AVANI Atrium Bangkok, you are sure to have witnessed the fun this year!

The streets come alive with people of all ages having water fights and partying on the streets with buckets of water and water guns. Splashing water on one another is fun no doubt, but it also has a deeper meaning which is to wash away all the bad luck of the past year and begin the new year afresh.
