Chiang Mai: Hat Sai Mueang Kaew is bustling with people flocking to cool off in the water. This Songkran, Chiang Mai residents and tourists had fun playing in the water at every spot, such as Hat Sai Mueang Kaew, Tambon Mueang Kaew, Amphoe Mae Rim, which was just as lively as the city.

According to Thai News Agency, Chiang Mai residents and tourists, most of whom come as families, choose to cool off during the Songkran holidays by playing in the water along the Ping River at Hat Sai Mueang Kaew. Along the shore, there are many restaurants open for service, allowing guests to sit, eat, and listen to music. The hot and humid weather has led many to cool off by soaking in the water, and there is also fun tubing, which is enjoyed by children, young men and women, as well as parents, uncles, aunts, and elders who enjoy spending time with their families with smiles. Some restaurants hire dancers to perform, impressing tourists.

Previously, there was a drama here after hiring coyote dancers to dance, which was criticized for its appropriateness. Many shops changed to hiring dancers to add color during Songkran instead, which many people agreed with because it was more in line with the family atmosphere.
