It’s that time of the year when Thailand celebrates the most anticipated festival of all which is Songkran or the Thai New Year. For those who are new to the term, this festival is one giant water fight that takes place across the nations of Thailand! It is indeed fun, yet what seems like an exciting water fight across the streets has deep religious and traditional meaning to it.

It is a wonderful time to travel to the destination as well. For travellers who do plan on visiting for the Songkran season, Maitria Residence Rama 9 and many a service apartment in Bangkok may provide special packages to help enjoy the festivities. Curious travellers can get the opportunity to participate in traditions and learn more about the meaning of this celebration to bring in the new year.
