Naga Monument

Wat Mahathat

📍 Coordinates: Kaopan Road, Nakong Pannonfu, Thailand (Khao Phanom, Nakhon Phanom) ⏰ Songkran Festival Time: April 13-15 Day (Main Venue Event) 🎉 Three Core Experiences of the Songkran Festival on Kaopan Road 1. Main battlefield of water war in the main venue of the Mekong River: Kaupan Road and the Mekong River (near Wat Phra That Phanom), the water splash culture here is more biased towards the combination of tradition and fun. Locals will use silver basins, water guns and even water pipes to &quot;no difference&quot; attack, it is recommended to wear dark quick dry clothes (light color is too embarrassing to soak through), waterproof mobile phone bags can be bought at 50 baht at the night market. Enter &quot;muffle mode&quot; after 2 pm, but remember to avoid the monks and pregnant women who carry the yellow flag, which is a local custom of respect. Hidden play: In the evening, put the Kongming lights on the riverside, and the Lao Tha Khaek City on the other side of the Mekong River will light up the light show simultaneously. The moment the water lights and lights intertwine, the atmosphere is directly full! 2. Traditional rituals are deeply involved in temple bath Buddha: On the morning of April 13, Wat Phra That Phanom a bath Buddha ceremony will be held. When you lightly drenched Buddha statues with perfume, local elderly people will lightly sprinkle your shoulders with sloping branches. Remember to wear trousers or knee skirts or you may be stopped outside the temple. Sand Tower: On the beach on the Mekong River, the whole family decorates the sand tower with shells, meaning &quot;to do good deeds&quot;. Free shovels and buckets are provided on site, and families with children should not miss it! 3. Cross-country carnival night singing and electric sound party: 14-15 Sunday and evening, Kaupan Road interacts with the river across the river from the city of Tha Khaek, Laos. Rent a boat to the middle of the river, you can hear the popular electric sound on the Thai side and the traditional folk songs on the Lao side at the same time, and you can mix and match! Be careful of &quot;cross-country raids&quot;: Lao friends will use long bamboo rafts to tie water guns to &quot;attack&quot; remotely, and be splashed to remember to smile back - this is a unique blessing for both countries! 🏨 Local private hotel recommendation: Fortune River View Hotel📍 Location: Mekong River, 5 minutes walk to the main venue 💰 Price: 1200-1800 THB/night (Sprinkling Festival housing is tight, book at least 1 month in advance) 🌟 Low-floor room type advantage Direct access to river view: 101-105 Room&#39;s private terrace is directly connected to the riverside trail, In the morning, you can see the sunrise in the direction of Laos by opening the window, and the wet clothes are dried in the small garden for a long time.

Breakfast must be eaten: go to the restaurant before 7 o&#39;clock, you can eat fresh Thai pancakes, sweet and spicy sauce, crispy, more authentic than the night market. 🚗 Transportation and food guide Bangkok: AirAsia direct flight to Nakong Panon Airport (1 hour), or take the VIP bus from Ekkamai East Station (10 hours, 450 baht). Mobile in the city: Tutu car 50 baht to Kaupan Road Night Market, only 5 minutes walk from the main venue. Food night market must eat: volcanic ribs are sour and hot, locals are directly handcuffed; cold fans add green mango silk and fried pig skin, so spicy to sweat but can&#39;t stop! River View Restaurant: Chelsea Riverside grilled Mekong salmon with lemongrass sauce, 200 baht per capita; View Kong&#39;s Dongyin Gong soup is freshly fished river shrimp, sour taste is straight to the sky! 🧳 Essentials and safety tips before the trip are essential items waterproof mobile phone bags (night market price 50 baht), anti-slip sandals, mosquito repellent (river mosquitoes are fierce). ❌ Don&#39;t wear light clothes! After soaking, the meat is permeated for minutes. Private play in Pharaoh for a day trip: the hotel agent will sign the landing sign ($20), take a boat to Tha Khaek to experience the Lao Songkran Festival (April 14-16), the cultural collision between the two countries is super interesting! niche photo spots: Naga Monument sunset silhouette, Ho Chi Minh&#39;s former residence of Thailand, Laoyue mixed building, less people. Safety reminder that the person who takes the silver basin may be the &quot;ice water assassin&quot;, and it is poured into the heart of the moment! Avoid walking alone in the remote alleys at night, and it is safer to be accompanied. 💡 Last year, during the Songkong Festival, when I put the Kongming lights on the Mekong River, my friends in Laos suddenly shouted &quot;Happy New Year&quot; in Chinese. The cross-country warmth of that moment made me unforgettable. The Songkran Festival on Kaupan Road is not as noisy as Bangkok, but there is more tranquility of the Mekong River and the fireworks intertwined between the two countries. Are you coming to experience this unique wet body romance this year? #Thailand Peace of mind tour #Songkran Festival Carnival #Thailand Kaupan Road Songkran Festival
