Description
Thousands of revellers take to the streets in downtown Bangkok, shooting water pistols or spraying hose pipes in a huge water fight as Thailand celebrates the traditional Songkran new year festival.
The celebrations involve paying respect to elders and sprinkling water over Buddha statues, with the festival also providing a chance for younger Thais and foreigners to indulge in a little booze-fuelled revelry. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
