Songkran Day is not just about fun water play, but also the Thai New Year which has a long history. The word Songkran comes from Sanskrit, meaning transition, which refers to the transition of the sun into the Aries constellation. According to legend, we often hear the story of Nang Songkran from the 7 daughters of Thao Kabinlaphrom, who each year Nang Songkran will take turns performing their duties. This is considered a strategy used by ancestors to connect beliefs with agricultural and family lifestyles. This makes this day a day of respect and the beginning of good things.

For Songkran 2569, Maha Songkran Day falls on Monday, April 13th. Therefore, Nang Songkran this year is named “Nang Manora Devi” (or Nang Koraka Devi according to each book) wearing a bracelet, wearing pearl jewelry, food oil, lying with open eyes (sleeping with open eyes) on the back of a tiger (tiger) as a vehicle. According to ancient predictions, Monday as Maha Songkran Day often indicates an abundance of plants and grains, but it may be necessary to be careful of a little chaos. This is considered a cultural color that makes the Songkran 2569 trip look more interesting and has more stories to follow.
