A special event that takes place every year in my country is Songkran. Songkran is a Thai festival, I mean, Thailand's New Year. It is held around the middle of April, approximately for three days: the 13th, 14th, and 15th of April. Thai people believe that these days are the hottest days of the year, so we splash water on each other and have a water fight. If you come to Thailand during this time, you will see many people wearing colorful shirts and holding buckets filled with water. Songkran is also considered a family holiday, so many people usually go back to their hometowns to meet their families, their roots, and their ancestors to celebrate together. I think everyone in my country enjoys this festival. I love this festival so much.
