Thai New Year is also called Songkran Festival. It is celebrated for three days from April 13 to April 15 every year. Songkran Festival is the most fun-filled time of the year in Thailand. For Thai people, it is an important holiday. It is a time to stay with their family, do good things in temples(寺庙), visit and show their love to the elderly. It is also a time to enjoy the water fight that takes place on almost every street in this country during the hottest month of the year.
The first day of Songkran Festival is an important day to do good things. Thai people will visit temples. Also they will give money, clothes and food to the monks(僧侣)that live in the temples. After that they will spend time with their family.
On the second day of Songkran Festival, Thai people will carry sand into temples to build small pagodas(塔) and put colored flags on them. It is believed to bring luck. Also, it is considered lucky to clean out the house and throw out trash on this day.
On the last day of Songkran Festival, Thai people will visit their elderly relatives and perform a water ceremony(典礼). They will gently pour water on their elderly relatives’ hands, which is a traditional way to show their love to them. In modern times, the gentle pouring of water has become a crazy water fight and it’s a time for all Thai people to have fun. So Songkran Festival is also known as "Water Festival".
