Busy Busy Ahead of Songkran
The Songkran festival, also known as the Thai New Year, is one of the most important and widely celebrated festivals in Thailand. It takes place annually from April 13 to April 15, although in some areas, such as Chiang Mai, the festivities can continue for several days.
Chiang Mai is known for having one of the most vibrant and exciting Songkran celebrations in all of Thailand. The city comes alive with water fights, parades, and cultural performances that attract both locals and tourists alike.
As the festival approaches, the streets of Chiang Mai are filled with vendors selling water guns, water balloons, and other festive items to help people celebrate. The air is filled with the sound of laughter and music as people of all ages take part in the festivities.
Amidst the excitement of the Songkran festival, I’m busy with my own plans. I'm getting ready to purchase a condo in Chiang Mai and am working closely with an architect to plan the renovations that will start on April 21.
As the Songkran festival unfolds outside, I’m busy coordinating everything that needs to happen, including meeting the seller to make the final payment, signing papers, registering at the Thai Land Office, and figuring out what needs to be renovated.
