What are the ceremonies of the Songkran Festival in Laos?

Songkran Festival, also known as Songkran Festival, is a traditional New Year in Laos and a grand festival in Laos. The Songkran Festival in Laos is mainly divided into bathing Buddha, worshipping Buddha, splashing water, tying thread, piling sand and releasing. On the day of the festival, people will wear festive costumes and bathe in perfume soaked with flowers. Then monks will collect perfume and sprinkle it on everyone's head, which means pure holy water to drive away diseases and disasters, and pray for abundant rain and bumper crops in the coming year to welcome a beautiful New Year, so as to be safe and smooth.

Matchmaking ceremony is the most important link in the Water-splashing Festival, a ritual custom of the Old Dragon, and also a blessing ceremony, which is often held on holidays, welcoming guests and weddings. At the ceremony, the host and guest sat on the floor, with a silver tray full of flowers in the middle, and bundles of white cotton thread hung on the flowers. At the beginning of the ceremony, venerable elders or monks will say greetings. After reading it, they took off the cotton thread on the flowers, tied the thread to the wrists of the guests and guests, and said blessings while tying the thread. Guests can also take the initiative to tie the line to the host or others. Laos pays attention to the knotting ceremony, and the thread tied to the hand should be worn for at least three days to a week. According to the tying ceremony, the people of the old dragon created a dance belonging to the old dragon. The dance was performed by more than five girls, holding colorful cotton threads, basically white, red, pink, yellow, orange and light blue. They are dressed in the traditional costumes of the old dragon and hung with colored cotton balls. The girl shuttled back and forth with cotton thread in her hand, showing the cheerful process of spinning.
