Join me for a very rarely seen Songkran 2023 festival in a small Thailand village. Not the same Khao San Road, Silom or Pattaya Songkran festival that is loaded with 90% tourists. This is a unique view of how Songkran is celebrated in a small Thai town, local style. Today I take you to Khok Mo, about 4 hours northwest of Bangkok, Thailand to witness this yearly water festival in a way very few foreigners ever get to see. Starting with a traditional Sonkgran ceremony at the Wat Khok Mo temple where the elders will have water poured on them as a sign of respect from younger people. There will be plenty of water fights, both stationary, and while in moving vehicles. Next, I jump into the back of a pick up truck and move the party to the first house along the route. It's a wild mobile Sonkgran celebration as I take you to several houses in this small village to eat food, splash water and observe the monks, and others, partake in this anual water festival. Such an amazing event, very few foreigners get to experience Songkran at this local level. I'm thrilled to share this small village celebration of Sonkgran 2023.
