1 Full Hour of Songkran Water Fight Action 2023 Festival ~ Pattaya Thailand

Dhruva Aliman Adventures 2023-07-31 | Songkran is the celebration of the traditional New Year in Thailand, a Buddhist holiday, and one could argue the world’ biggest water gun fight. Most travelers to Thailand that want to experience water festival come for the latter. For three days, up to a week in some areas, people take to the street with buckets of water, super soaker water guns, hoses, and anything else that will help them delight in dousing people with water.

It is a huge celebration and national holiday in Thailand and great fun. There is a party like atmosphere throughout the cities and many festivals and events taking place throughout the celebration.

The Songkran festival used to change dates based on the solar calendar. In recent years the date has been codified and the public holiday is always April 13 – 15 every year. Songkran day is April 13th. This is the day where Thai and Buddhist traditions are observed.

The Thai Water Festival, as Songkran is also known, can last longer than 3 days in areas like Chiang Mai, Phuket, and Pattaya. Some people even get started soaking people a little early, so be on the look out a day or two before the holiday officially begins.

The Songkran festival started out as the traditional Thai New Year’s celebration. It was based on the solar calendar and the date often fluctuated. In 1940, Thailand adopted January 1 as it’s official start to the New Year but the Songkran holiday continues to be celebrated as part of the cultural and Buddhist tradition of the country.

While most people are familiar sights of the water fights raging on the city streets and the festivities and revelries associated with today’s festival, the origins are from more stoic Buddhist traditions that date back hundreds of years and still practiced today.

It is a time of cleaning, washing away the bad luck, misdeeds, and misfortunes from the previous year and starting anew. The Thai’s pour scented water over the statues of Buddha and the shoulders of each other and on the hands of their elders in a symbolic gesture of this belief.

This tradition still continues is the homes and temples around Thailand. It’s only afterward that people take to the streets and start soaking each other with water and celebrating for days on end.

While any attire you don’t mind getting wet is appropriate, many people dress up for Songkran. The ‘Songkran Shirt’ is a colorful flower print reminiscent of Hawaiian shirts, and many people will be wearing them. Some take it to another level and get dressed up in costumes and masks.

You can expect to be splashed with water as soon as you start walking down the street. Another Songkran tradition is to wipe a white chalk mixture on people’s faces. It’s a symbolic nod to the chalk used by Buddhist monks for blessing. Don’t be surprised if someone comes up and smears some white goop on your face, though it is impolite for someone to do so without asking first.

You aren’t safe from getting wet anywhere unless you are locked in your hotel room, these are the best cities to celebrate the Thai Water Festival.

In Bangkok - Khao San Road and Silom are the epicenter for Songkran activities in Bangkok. Khao San Road is the backpacker ghetto and it is a drunken party with plenty of tourist on tourist soaking. There are many bars serving alcohol and DJ’s pumping out tunes.

Pattaya does Songkran like no other city in Thailand. When the celebration ends elsewhere, Pattaya carries on celebrating till April 19th, that’s a full week! Soi 6, 7, and 8 are popular spots. Bars will have large drums of water setup for people to reload their water guns, and many tourists will park themselves at the bars, drinking and having a good time as they soak passersby with water.

With bars lining almost every street, Pattaya is like one giant Songkran party. The festivities end on Wan Lai, which means ‘Flowing Day’. If you’ve had enough of being drenched, head over to Bang Saen beach where they craft amazing sand castles and sculptures.

Chiang Mai is probably the most popular spot for tourists to enjoy the Thailand Water Festival. The slow laid back atmosphere in a city surrounded by a moat filled with water make it an ideal location. The moat is drained shortly before the holiday begins and is filled with clean (‘ish) water as it is a major source for reloading buckets and water guns. The old city is where all the activity is and where you want to be.

In Phuket, Patong Beach is where the action is. Bangla and Beach roads in particular are the hot spots. Bangla Road is closed off to cars and people walk up and down dumping water on each other while being shot at with water guns from patrons at the bars lining the streets.

Songkran Kill Zone ~ Soi 6 ~ Pattaya ~ Thailand

Dhruva Aliman Adventures 2023-04-14 | Songkran is an annual festival which takes place over three days during the traditional Thai New Year, April 13th-15th (in almost all provinces). The official Songkran festival lasts three days but in reality the whole week is taken over by a mass celebration as the whole country shuts down for a momentous water fight. Wild scenes of exuberance can be seen throughout the Kingdom with music, dancing, drinking and people drenched from head to toe. Water guns, hose pipes, buckets, in fact, anything you can get your hands on can be used to splash people, and one thing is for certain: you will get wet! As April is the hottest month of the year in Thailand, everyone gets involved with this country-wide water fight and it brings great relief from the soaring temperatures. Songkran started as a Buddhist tradition, using a light sprinkling of water to symbolize purification but, as time went by, people began splashing each other in a more playful manner until recent years, when the entire country becomes one almighty water fight celebrated by millions!

Songkran in PATTAYA When: April 13-19 Pattaya is known as a party city so it should come as no surprise that Songkran festivities last longer here than anywhere else in Thailand. There will be water fights going on during the regular Songkran days (13th-15th April) but, uniquely, Pattaya celebrates into the following week too. Known in Thai as the Wan Lai Festival, this year the biggest day of revelry will be on April 19th so if you arrive in Thailand a little late this is your last chance to party. Where to Party? Everybody is armed with a water dispenser of some description. Some favour the semi-traditional bucket, many go for a water gun and some use Heath Robinson high-pressure hoses made from a length of plastic plumbing pipe with a small hole at one and a plunger at the other. Beach Road is cut off to traffic and stages are set up for live music and foam machines. The fire department park their engines here, filling numerous water butts for revellers to reload their soakers from. On the roads that do allow vehicles, the main ones become a slow-moving traffic jam. Pick-up trucks are turned into mobile parties, with their own water butts, the radio on full volume and many young Thais strafing pedestrians and other vehicles from the back.

Good To Know About Songkran in Thailand If you find yourself anywhere in Thailand during mid-April, there is no getting away from being splashed (the only exceptions to this would be monks, new born babies and the elderly), even if you are dressed in your nicest clothes… so leave your best suit and suede shoes at home. Also, take good care of cameras, passports, and other valuables – keep them in your hotel safe or, if you have to bring them out, waterproof bags are widely available and should be used. One phrase you will hear all over Thailand during Songkran is “Sawadee Bee Mai” which means ‘Happy New Year’, it is sure to be greeted with smiles and is the best way to make new friends. Every provincial town will have some form of celebration and often the local exuberance in small towns can be as much fun as in any of the most popular towns and beach resorts listed above. Just remember to take a splashing with the good humor in which it is intended, and if you don’t like being splashed, stay indoors or in the confines of your hotel.

Florida Beaches Shrinking & Islands Sinking Due To Industrial Sand Consumption - SAND WARS

Dhruva Aliman Adventures 2021-10-03 | Watch SAND WARS on AMAZON - amzn.to/2ZOpwRn …This captivating documentary, Sand Wars, educates viewers on the value of sand and its countless uses. The film travels around the world, studying the corrupt governments in India which have been overthrown by the sand mafias, and even focusing on the harmful effects of dredging in more industrially developed countries. Sand Wars additionally faces the crisis that our world will soon have to accept- life without sand. As explained in the film, sand is used in almost every aspect of our daily lives, from microchips in computers to cellphones, glass bottles, and most importantly construction. The average house takes about 200 tons of sand to build, and the typical hospital uses around 3000 tons of this resource. One of the main questions that the film sparks is what would civilization be without sand?

Sand Wars discusses a possible future in a world without sand. Sand is a resource vital to innovation, new inventions, and even a necessity for shelter. So why is this a problem? This riveting documentary explains how all the sand on land has been consumed by construction companies, and why dredging for underwater sand is destroying Earth with every drill. Sand is being illegally trafficked, stolen, and transported behind regulations, and soon there will be none left since it is becoming a finite resource since sand formation has been hindered by human interference such as dams and coral destruction .

The gripping documentary provides factual evidence through statistics as well interviews with credible professors and scientists throughout the film. Michael Welland, a geologist, provides insight on the topic and so does Kira Pereira, a researcher. Sand Wars even goes into the field, interviewing illegal sand trafficking workers in Singapore and showing the destroyed shores of pillaged beaches which are now empty craters of rocks.

One of the most effective measures of preventing sand from completely vanishing as a resource is reusing and recycling current infrastructure materials. As stated by the UNEP Global Environmental Alert Service, “One way to reduce consumption of sand is to optimize the use of existing buildings and infrastructure. Recycled building and quarry dust material can be a substitute for sand. Despite the very high value of minerals found in the sand, it is mostly used for concrete or is buried under highways. Concrete rubble should be recycled to avoid using aggregates, at least for low-quality uses (Kondolf, 1997).” The film Sand Wars additionally mentions various ways we as individuals can help prevent the disappearance of sand, from recycling glass bottles, which can be crushed back into sand, to finding alternative resources for sand and gravel.

Sand Wars is a fascinating film which approaches a typically unknown topic – the value of sand. This engrossing documentary both educates and entertains the audience on a subject which is commonly ignored. Sand is a limited resource, and the film explains how we can all do our part.

Monkey island is a small island located south of Pattaya between Koh Khram and Bang Saray, known as Koh Ling to the Thai's which means monkey the actual name is Koh Ped.

But as with all primates the chance of a free lunch is more than irresistible.

Monkey populations have increased dramatically over past years due to the increase In tourism which has led to food shortages in low season. The Thai Royal Navy do all they can to take care of the family during these times.

Dog Bite - Pattaya Thailand - City Hall Darts Dog And Takes It Away

Dhruva Aliman Adventures 2020-06-10 | instagram.com/dhruvaaliman - I didn't touch this dog, I didn't play with this dog, I never saw this dog. I was just walking down the street, minding my own business like everybody else. And that was the 2nd time I got bit by a dog in Pattaya! I love the dogs, I buy them food from 7/11, but you just can't allow a psycho dog to bite people for no reason. When you get a dog bite in Pattaya don't bother telling the police, they won't do anything. You have to go straight to City Hall and write out a complaint and demand to speak to the head of public safety. Make sure you got video. And go get your vaccine and serum shots because as the Hospital nurse told me "Rabies has 100% mortality"...I didn't like those odds, so I got the serum. When they start barking, watch your back. The nurse that cleaned my wound at the clinic happens to live on that street. She says she keeps her kids away from that dog because it's crazy.

Coopers Hawk Stuck In Garage

Dhruva Aliman Adventures 2020-01-13 | The Cooper's hawk (Accipiter cooperii), also known as the cooper hawk, is a medium-sized hawk native to the North American continent and found from Southern Canada to Northern Mexico. As in many birds of prey, the male is smaller than the female. The birds found east of the Mississippi River tend to be larger on average than the birds found to the west. Other common names for the Cooper's hawk include: big blue darter, chicken hawk, flying cross, hen hawk, quail hawk, striker, and swift hawk.
Cooper's hawk was first described by French naturalist Charles Lucien Bonaparte in 1828. It is a member of the goshawk genus Accipiter. This bird was named after the naturalist William Cooper, one of the founders of the New York Lyceum of Natural History (later the New York Academy of Sciences) in New York. Other common names; big blue darter, chicken hawk, hen hawk, Mexican hawk, quail hawk, striker and swift hawk.

Bungy Jump Safety Standards & Procedures - Pattaya XBungy Sanook Park, Thailand

Dhruva Aliman Adventures 2019-03-04 | instagram.com/dhruvaaliman ... Mini Documentary of Bungy (or Bungee) Jump Technology, Safety Standards & Procedures at Pattaya XBungy Sanook Park ONLY! - This video does not speak for any other business - Highest Bungy Jump in Thailand (200 ft). Operating for over 30 years with over 100,000 jumps and no problems!. http://pattayabungy.com ... Bungy Jumping is steeped in tradition and dates back to an ancient ritual that is performed in the village of Bunlap on Vannatu Island. The “Gkol” that is performed is a rite of passage for the tribesman and entails them Bungy Jumping using Banyan tree vines attached to their ankles. Inspired by this, the first modern era Bungee Jump was conducted by Oxford University Dangerous Sports Club on the 1st April 1979 at Clifton Suspension Bridge, Bristol, England. Members of the club jumped using shock cord instead of banyan tree vines whilst wearing top hat and tails. You can watch a video of this very first jump on youtube.

The enormous publicity form the stunt led to the club performing a second jump from the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco then a jump from the Royal George Suspension Bridge in Colorado.

All went quiet until the video was seen by New Zealander AJ Hackett who in June 1987 very publicly performed a Bungy Jump from the Eiffel Tower in Paris France. The key difference was AJ Hackett saw the opportunity to commercialize Bungy Jumping into an extreme sport by using rubber instead of shock cord and in November 1988 the Kawarau Bridge 43m Bungy Jump opened. During the first year AJ Hackett had just 28 customers.
In Thailand that year, Pattaya Bungy Jump opened with a jump 17m higher than the Kawarau Bridge Jump at 60m.

The Pattaya Bungy Jump was not only the first in South East Asia but still remains the highest Bungy Jump in Thailand today. Since 1989 the Bungy Jumping craze has exploded and there are now many thousands of Bungy Jumps worldwide all started from the humble beginnings in New Zealand and Thailand.

Dhruva Aliman Adventures 2019-02-16 | The Human Slingshot is really like no other experience and indeed this is the first and currently only slingshot experience in Asia. The easiest way to describe the human slingshot is to think of Angry Birds. You will wear a full body harness, with neck restraint to keep you safe and securely attached to two specially designed silicon bungy cords which are fixed to the top of the towers. Then, once safe an secure you will be prepared for launch.

The Human Slingshot, is without doubt one of the most incredible experiences you could have. We will then check your weight (maximum weight for the Human Slingshot is 220 pounds/100kg) in preparation for your launch.

You are pulled back horizontally 40 meters to the starting location, then with a force of up to 4G, you will accelerate to 150kph in under a second. Enjoy as you fly back and forth only a few meters above the ground.

The Flying Morgans Castle Parties ~ Hollywood Hills

Dhruva Aliman Adventures 2018-09-24 | Meet the Morgans, L.A.'s castle-dwelling, high-flying, coolest, quirkiest family. Husband and wife team Gary and Suzy Morgan, their raven-haired daughter Molly and her redhead sister Bonnie along with son-in-law Aaron Jacobs gave us access to their home nestled high in the Hollywood Hills. Here's a behind-the-scenes look. Every year the Flying Morgans send out invitations to 500 of their very closest friends to join them at an epic New Year's Eve blowout. There they will get to watch the amazing Gary Morgan's NYE ball drop at midnight, dance to DJ Dr. Nate, drink Red Bull and Wheatley vodka and toast the New Year with plenty of Wycliffe Champagne. A highlight for us, most definitely, were the delicious ice cream rolls (infused or sober) by Chillbachi.

Visiting Sanctuary of Truth Temple ~ Pattaya Thailand 4K

Dhruva Aliman Adventures 2018-09-02 | Sanctuary of Truth (Thai: ปราสาทสัจธรรม Prasat Sajja Tham) is a religious construction in Pattaya, Thailand. The sanctuary is an all-wood building filled with sculptures based on traditional Buddhist and Hindu motifs. The top of the building is 105 meters high, and the building covers an area of more than two rai. It features contemporary Visionary art based on traditional religious themes. The project was initiated as an idea of Thai businessman Lek Viriyaphant in 1981, and is scheduled to be completed in 2050.

The main style of the sanctuary is based on the Thai architecture of the Ayutthayan period, richly decorated by Hindu-Buddhist hand-carved wooden sculptures drawn from various artistic traditions, including Dravidian, Angkorean, Chinese, Mon Dvaravati, Srivijayan, and Thai. It has four gopura, respectively representing images from the Buddhist and Hindu religions and mythologies of Cambodia, China, India and Thailand. According to the official website, its purpose is to use art and culture as "a reflection of the Ancient Vision of Earth, Ancient Knowledge, and Eastern Philosophy. Within this complex, visitors will understand Ancient Life, Human Responsibility, Basic Thought, Cycle of living, Life Relationship with Universe and Common Goal of Life toward Utopia"

Adventures In Pattaya - Part 5 - Thailand 4K HD

Dhruva Aliman Adventures 2018-08-29 | Pattaya is a city on Thailand’s eastern Gulf coast known for its beaches lined with resort hotels, high-rise condos, shopping malls, cabaret bars and 24-hour clubs. Nearby, hillside Wat Phra Yai Temple features an 18m-tall golden Buddha. The area also features several designer golf courses, some with views of Pattaya Bay. The giant Buddha of Wat Khao Phra Bat keeps watch over the city, and the wooden Wang Boran Sanctuary of Truth pays homage to Buddhist and Hindu art and architecture.

Pattaya Hotels and Travel Guide Pattaya Travel Information Pattaya is always switched on and fun. This vibrant coastal city shot to fame in early 1980s, and stayed there. From sunrise to sunset, Pattaya’s beaches are constantly brimming with life, as water sports lovers and sun worshippers take to the waters. After dark, the action shifts to the streets, as revellers explore its electrified nightlife scene, where drinking and partying continue until dawn. Apart from water sports and nightlife, Pattaya offers endless possibilities when it comes to accommodation and entertainment. It has outgrown its image as a seedy beach town to a destination for a wider audience; whether couples, families or business travellers, Pattaya has something for everyone. Only 147km from Bangkok, Pattaya is the closest of Thailand's major beach resorts to the capital city.

Pattaya Walking Street is the biggest and busiest party hotspot in the whole of Thailand, with only a couple of the top places in Bangkok beating it for sheer volume and variety. A full kilometre from its high-tech gateway at the Beach Road end to the Bali Hai Plaza end, almost every building along its length is a nightclub, go-go bar, beer bar or restaurant. Each of the side streets – which span from Soi 14 to Soi 16, with a couple of uniquely-named streets in between - is more of the same, making the whole southern end of the city into a warren of nightlife entertainments, with something for practically every taste. The remarkable thing about Pattaya Walking Street is that there is so much to see and do, and it is so densely packed that you could spend every night for a whole week there and, aside from having the mother of all hangovers, you would still be finding new places each and every evening. We have endeavored to survey the main points of interest and even here we are just scratching the surface of the hundreds of venues on and around the neon-drenched strip.

Walking Street is effectively a part of Pattaya Beach Road. While the main tarmac-topped route turns to the left to become South Pattaya Road (Pattaya Tai), vehicles can continue into the brick-paved Walking Street any time between about 02:00 and 18:00. At the end of the one-way road, you will find Bali Hai Pier and the famous Pattaya City sign, as well as the southernmost end of Pattaya Third Road, which will take you back into the city. There is more to the nightlife attractions of the area than just Pattaya Walking Street, however. Most of the small side sois which split off from the inland side of the street lead all the way to Pattaya Second Road, making this whole southern end of the city almost exclusively comprised of nightlife venues and related businesses. Walking Street has concentrations of different sorts of venues as you make your way along it. Starting from the Beach Road end, you will find first mostly restaurants, then go-go bars and beer bars, then nightclubs and live music bars. At about the halfway point is the famous Walking Street Tree (there’s only the one), around which you will find mostly ladyboy bars and clubs. Continuing towards Bali Hai Pier, you will see more tailors and gem shops as well as more hotels and guesthouses, culminating in the Siam Bayshore Resort & Spa. Parking for motorbikes is available close to Pattaya Walking Street in Soi 16 and at Bali Hai Plaza and costs about 20 baht. However, driving home after a night of partying is not at all recommended. You would be much safer using the plentiful supply of motorbike taxis and songthaews available.

Worlds Biggest Water Fight - Adventures In Pattaya ~ Part 3 ~ Songkran ~ Thailand 4K HD

Dhruva Aliman Adventures 2018-07-11 | Buy a Super Squirter on Amazon - amzn.to/3f03M6T ...See Playing with Tigers in Thailand Here - youtube.com /watch?v=wB39fWw56n0 ...Music: The Walwrath (Escape From Hell Mix) by Dhruva Aliman - dhruvaaliman.bandcamp.com/album/road-of-fortunes - http://www.dhruvaaliman.com - Spotify - open.spotify.com/artist/5XiFCr9iBKE6Cupltgnlet ...Songkran is an annual festival which takes place over three days during the traditional Thai New Year, April 13th-15th (in almost all provinces). The official Songkran festival lasts three days but in reality the whole week is taken over by a mass celebration as the whole country shuts down for a momentous water fight. Wild scenes of exuberance can be seen throughout the Kingdom with music, dancing, drinking and people drenched from head to toe. Water guns, hose pipes, buckets, in fact, anything you can get your hands on can be used to splash people, and one thing is for certain: you will get wet! As April is the hottest month of the year in Thailand, everyone gets involved with this country-wide water fight and it brings great relief from the soaring temperatures. Songkran started as a Buddhist tradition, using a light sprinkling of water to symbolize purification but, as time went by, people began splashing each other in a more playful manner until recent years, when the entire country becomes one almighty water fight celebrated by millions!

Songkran in PATTAYA When: April 13-19 Pattaya is known as a party city so it should come as no surprise that Songkran festivities last longer here than anywhere else in Thailand. There will be water fights going on during the regular Songkran days (13th-15th April) but, uniquely, Pattaya celebrates into the following week too. Known in Thai as the Wan Lai Festival, this year the biggest day of revelry will be on April 19th so if you arrive in Thailand a little late this is your last chance to party. Where to Party? Everybody is armed with a water dispenser of some description. Some favour the semi-traditional bucket, many go for a water gun and some use Heath Robinson high-pressure hoses made from a length of plastic plumbing pipe with a small hole at one and a plunger at the other. Beach Road is cut off to traffic and stages are set up for live music and foam machines. The fire department park their engines here, filling numerous water butts for revellers to reload their soakers from. On the roads that do allow vehicles, the main ones become a slow-moving traffic jam. Pick-up trucks are turned into mobile parties, with their own water butts, the radio on full volume and many young Thais strafing pedestrians and other vehicles from the back.

Good To Know About Songkran in Thailand If you find yourself anywhere in Thailand during mid-April, there is no getting away from being splashed (the only exceptions to this would be monks, new born babies and the elderly), even if you are dressed in your nicest clothes… so leave your best suit and suede shoes at home. Also, take good care of cameras, passports, and other valuables – keep them in your hotel safe or, if you have to bring them out, waterproof bags are widely available and should be used. One phrase you will hear all over Thailand during Songkran is “Sawadee Bee Mai” which means ‘Happy New Year’, it is sure to be greeted with smiles and is the best way to make new friends. Every provincial town will have some form of celebration and often the local exuberance in small towns can be as much fun as in any of the most popular towns and beach resorts listed above. Just remember to take a splashing with the good humour in which it is intended, and if you don’t like being splashed, stay indoors or in the confines of your hotel.
