Songkran is a Thai traditional New Year which starts on April 13 every year and lasts for 3 days. Songkran is a Thai word which means "move" or "change place" as it is the day when the sun changes its position in the zodiac.
It is also known as the "Water Festival" as people believe that water will wash away bad luck.
The most-talked about celebration takes place in the northern province of Chiang Mai.
During this period, people from all parts of the country flock there to enjoy the water festival, to watch the Miss Songkran Contest and the beautiful parades.
Most of this pictures is taken with the camera in a plastic bag. It´s necessary because you will get wet. It´s water everywhere.
