Spending SongKhran in Bangkok next week and 12, 13, 14 April 2014

songkhran1songkhran2thailand2thailand5   Next week, Mon 7 April,  I plan to go to Bangkok.  Will be there until Monday 14 April.

SongKhran is the Thai New Year, and is the most important year in Thai festivals and traditions.  Most Thais would take their holidays from Fri night 11 April and return 14 April. Bangkok will be quite, the roads are fast as there are few cars.  Tradition way of respect to the elders is to hold the palm of the elder and pour slowly water over the hand, until the container is empty.  Young people and every other person would splash water onto you.  It will be a fun week.

If you like to join me in Bangkok, and have some fun time enjoying the place, do let me know.  I see air tickets to Bangkok are attractive, so you may like to consider.

  1. If you join me in Bkk during the Songkhran holidays, you may stay with me. Obviously you have got to keep the place tidy and clean.

  2. I’ve been in Bangkok long enough to actually avoid being there during songkran. The whole country shuts down for a week and nothing gets done. But then Bangkok for me is work not holiday. Anyway I’ll be arriving in Bangkok on Thursday, 10 Apr, do what I have to do and scoot out on Monday, 14 Apr. Perhaps we can find some time over the weekend to catch up.
