Above: The Thai Pavilion at Lan Plub Pla Maha Jedsadabodin is the main stage for cultural performances. Surprisingly, in a good way, the shows draw a big crowd every night.

One of the "Songkran Splendours" Parade floats was parked along Thanon Ratchadamnoen. This float has replicas of 7 Thailand's most sacred Buddha images.

Another float has Thai mythical creatures such as garuda (half bird half human).

Intertwined nagas float.

The main attractions of the decorations on Thanon Ratchandamnoen are naga fountains around the Democracy Monument. Thousands of locals and tourists stop by to take photos every night.
