I am a freelance photographer, I come to Thailand to make my project about nature and festivals in Thailand. For 6 months in here, I had a chance to join so many festivals here. 

  •  Songkran

The most well known of all Thai festivals, Songkran is for those who love a good water fight. It’s the official Thai New Year landing on April 13th each year and lasting around 2 to 3 days. During the festival, the streets fill up with people looking to soak and get soaked with super-soakers in hand! Water is used as a symbol of cleansing, which is exactly what the Thai want to do to start the New Year

  • Loi Krathong

Loi Krathong is celebrated on one night during full moon of the 12th lunar month. ‘Loy’ signifies ‘floating’, while ‘krathong’ is a small object in the shape of a lotis flower, usually made from banana leaves. On the evening of the festival, thousands of people head to their local river or canal to make a wish. They do so by lighting the candle in their krathong and setting it free to float with the current. Truly beautiful.

  • Ubon Rachatani Candle festival


For art lovers, the Ubon Ratchatani Candle festival is perfect. Held at the start of the Buddhist Lenten period (beginning of August), artists create larger than life wax sculptures as a Buddhist offering. Seventy or so wax creations are then paraded through the streets, amazing all spectators
