Songkran,
the traditional Thai New Year, is celebrated all over the country but nowhere
with more enthusiasm than in Chiang Mai. Part of the celebration is religious,
marked by merit-making ceremonies at local temples, and part is pure pleasure,
with good-natured water throwing parades and beauty contests. |
