The Songkran festival is celebrated in Thailand, where participants splash water on each other. This event, marking the Thai New Year, symbolizes the washing away of sins and bad luck, making way for a fresh start. Celebrated in mid-April, the festival incorporates water fights, parades, and cultural performances. It’s a time for family reunions and spiritual renewal, as individuals visit temples to pay respects to their ancestors and engage in rituals that promote good fortune in the new year.
