Nice tour, I really enjoyed it. I felt like I was there!
This video was shot POV. Glad that you enjoyed it. I enjoyed filming and getting drenched thoroughly. Thanks for your comment!
Really fun to watch
Thank you so much for the share
Thanks for your wonderful comment. I love your ASMR videos very much.
Very fun
All adults become children for 3 days here.
Silom is the most fun. I really like this place.
I was at various places in Bangkok during Songkran and also feel that Silom has the most fun.
Happy Thai New Year ❤Happy Songkran Festival 2024 🥰🇹🇭
Happy Thai New Year! Thanks for watching 😀
Your videos always accompany me in my boring days... thank you for making me feel less lonely!
Thank you Heman!
Very exciting, hope to capture this one day!
You can visit Bangkok next year for this festival. It's fun!
@@SingaporeCityWalks Indeed, putting this in my calendar for consideration next year.
songkran is the time when most thais return to their hometown from the big cities, mainly bangkok, same goes for malay and Chinese returning home for hari raya and Chinese new year respectively. songkran falls on every 13 to 15 April every year and this similar celebration is observed in laos as pi mai lao or the lao new year and yunnan's xishungbanna region by the ethnic dai minority.
recently, I went to phatthalung for my holiday at the thale noi lake famous for its pink water lilies. during that time, many vehicles travelled along the highway on both sides as many people returned home for the songkran. in towns like phtthalung and hat yai, booths were set up for the songkran including those stores selling toy water guns. there was 1 road closed for the songkran's water fight festival in danok next to namewee's new 4896 hotel just a stone's throw from the bukit kayu hitam immigration checkpoint. it's just that songkran coincides with hari raya week for this year.
Interesting info, Hamilton. You travel a lot and experience many places and cultures. Now I know that Laos and Yunnan ethnic minority also celebrate this. Thanks!
The Songkran Festival in Bangkok is a truly spectacular event featuring water battles.
This festival has the meaning of purifying past misfortunes and praying for future prosperity.
The Silom city streets are filled with the sounds of people cheering and throwing water at each other, and participants use water guns and buckets to throw water at each other.
Your video cleverly protects the equipment from water damage while vividly conveying the realism and joy festival, it gives us an experience as if we were actually there!☝️🌟🇹🇭
Yosh and Iku
I had great fun filming this festival. I got splashed and drenched. I filmed in the afternoon and there were big water fights as there were spaces to run and move around.
By night time, the place was filled with people shoulder to shoulder. (I wasn't there). People were just moving along, following the human tide. There were no chance of any water fights. Videos filmed by others of this massive human tide easily have 100k to 200k views.
Should I carry on with my style of production with limited views or simply film the massive crowds to get massive views?
so much fun!
Thank you for your nice comment. Please watch my other Songkran videos when you are free 🙏
Fun water fight festival 👍🏼💜 kids must love it. I am worried about your camera 🎥
I think adults love it more than the kids. You can see from their faces and actions. Some go there to shoot at others, some go there to be shot at (especially ladies). Protecting my iPhone and Pocket 3 cameras was very tiring. Keep wiping the water off and check that they do not overheat as they are wrapped in plastic.
Wow wonderful celebration ....people enjoying the water fights ....somewhat similar to Holi festival in India.....wonderful capture ....thanks for sharing👍👍👍
I enjoyed very much too. Please share your Holi festival when it comes around. It would be interesting to watch.
Amazing capture 👌👌. The water jet from the lorry seems forceful. Hope you and your camera gears all okay ❤
Now I know how the roadside plants and shrubs feel when they are being watered. My Pocket 3 was wrapped in plastic cellophane and overheated after a while. I continued to film with my iPhone 14 with plastic pouch protection. Images were affected by water marks so I removed and filmed without the plastic protection. I used the Pocket 3 again when it cooled. The water cannon scenes were filmed with Pocket 3. My iPhone would be water-damaged if I used it without plastic covering. The water jets were forceful.
Phone: Help CM! Stop spraying water at me!!!!
Haha, Yuhao, you are funny. You should be here in Bangkok!
What an amazing spectacle! I hope you managed to protect your Pocket 3 camera from the water, as I know it's not weather-resistant.
I wrapped my Pocket 3 with cellophane type of plastic bag. It did not get wet, but it overheated because the heat could not dissipate. I then used my iPhone 4 until Pocket 3 cooled.
It was great filming the water festival. I am happy with my video. It's too bad that CZcams is not promoting it. Some people who filmed the festival continuously by walking from point A to point B, filming the backs of people, are getting 100k to 200k views. However, I am happy with my own style of video production and will not be affected by this.
@@SingaporeCityWalks CZcams is a weird platform, and the items that get promoted are often not worthy of it. Your productions are always first-class, and I'm sure your viewers appreciate them. The number of views doesn't mean anything sometimes.
