HotelThailand.com, a leading online travel agent specialised in Thailand hotel reservation, recently introduced a special set of promotions for those who are making travel arrangements in April 2010.
Thailand celebrates its traditional Thai New Year, also known as Songkran, between 13th and 15th April each year. What makes Songkran very unique to other New Year celebrations is the ritual of pouring water. In past, people poured a small amount of scented water to each other over their hands or shoulders as a way to show respect. Applying this old tradition to the modern lifestyle, people today enthusiastically splash water to each other on streets to ease heat of the country's hottest season.
