Apparently undeterred by the excessive PM2.5 air pollution, many residents and tourists, both Thai and foreign, spilled onto the Chiang Mai’s main roads this morning (Thursday) to celebrate the Songkran festival.

 

Many were seen filling their water guns and containers from a ditch, to squirt at one another in a joyful atmosphere.

 

In line with the tradition, the Phuttha Sihing, the most revered Buddha image in Chiang Mai, was moved from Phra Sing Temple in a vehicle procession around the city, to let people ritually bathe the statue.

I'm guessing that with lack of portaloos then that water might look a little yellowy brown. Sometimes I think these people deserve a junta as they seem to have absolutely no idea about infections
