ソンクラーン（水かけ祭り）は、本来の宗教的意味合いは薄れてしまい、観光地を中心に水かけ騒ぎとなっています。
仏や神が介在していた祭りごとが、フェスティバルという世俗的なものに堕ちてしまいました。それでも世界中から人々を惹きつける魅力があるのです。
水かけ騒ぎが始まる前に、ほんの少し伝統音楽や芸能と一緒に歩いてみよう。

Original meaning of Songkran (water festival) has faded, now it has become a water rampage around tourist spots. Sacred event which mediated with buddha and god has fallen to a secular event called festival. Despite of that, it still attracts people from around the world.
Just before the start of water rampage, let's take a little walk with traditional music and entertainment.

Songkran (Sprinkling Water Festival) is losing original religious meaning, Nowadays it turns into water festivities for sightseeing mainly.
The Buddha and Gods existed between feasts, but it turned worldly such as festivals. Regardless of that, the people around the world are attracted to the festival.
Before water festivities begin, let's walk along with traditional music and performing art for a while.

Songkran (a water throwing festival) has lost much of its religious meaning, being a big mess of throwing water centred in sightseeing spots.
Once a holy festival connecting people and Buddha or gods, now it has become just a secular matter. Yet it still has the charm to attract people from all over the world.
Before the messy water throwing starts, let's have a little walk together experiencing the traditional music and performance.
