During the Songkran festival the streets are lined with thousands of people armed with buckets of water, they are ready to splash everyone that passes by, both locals and tourists! Thais enjoy adding talcum powder to the water. When splashed with this podwery water the effect is funny: you end up with white hair and white face. Also, the new rage is to put ice in the buckets, so be warned, some of the water is icy cold!
