Posted on Monday, April 14 @ 18:49:23 ICT Travel


Streams of locals and foreign visitors start pouring into Bangkok's most famous Songkran celebration spot, Khao San Road since late this morning. Some 100,000 people are expected to visit the famed street today.

To ensure public safety, police at the Chana Songkran Station prohibit revelers from using powder paste, hard plastic tools, and large water guns. Moreover, trucks carrying water tanks are not allowed to enter the street and the nearby roads. ...

Meanwhile, residents in Bang Lamphu which is a nearby neighborhood has organized a traditional Songkran celebration including a procession where the community's sacred Buddha image is carried along the streets for the public to pay respect. ...

In Chiang Mai, which is a popular reveling spot, many locals and foreign tourists gather along the main canal to splash water on each other, causing traffic congestion around that area. Police are maintaining order by facilitating commuters and monitoring drunk drivers.

In the northeastern province of Kalasin, despite the drought in several areas, the provincial waterworks authority affirms that residents will have sufficient water to enjoy the festival.
