Song Kran in Mae Ngad Dam

"Sa Wad Dee Pee Mai ka"! Happy New Year everyone! :)

This year Songkran Festival just passed, I had the opportunity to go to the moat to splash water. I thought this year the people come out for splash water quite many although government did not permit to sell alcohol. “No Smoking, No Alcohol.”

I saw many people in the moat take the bowl with the water and walked around the moat while sprinkled the others. Some people also played in pick-up truck. They put the water into the buckets that was in the truck then they sprinkled the others while they were on the vehicle. Looked has been very amusing. This is Chiangmai’s Songkran Festival.


This year I was not only in moat join Songkran Festival, but also went to the Mae Ngad Dam with my Thai friends. It is the first time to go there for me, because it’s very amazing to me as a foreigner who lives in Thailand. Mae Ngad Dam is one of the nice Dam for spend the times with sun and dam without crown tourist. It is nice place for family and enjoy with seafood and happiness. I have known why Chiang Mai people like to go to Mae Ngad Dam, because this place is a very nice place moreover is very also peaceful. You can find the good bungalow with cheap price for delicious thai food.

It took two hours when we drive from Chiangmai town city to Mae Ngad Dam. Our first target is to board a boat round the Mae Ngad Dam. It had already passed noon when we arrived Mae Ngad Dam.

So, we had lunch here while waiting for the boat. After almost half hour of swaying in the dam, we finally arrived at our resort which locates up the dam. It’s really peaceful. This is the first time for me to Mae Ngad Dam. The dum’s color was gorgeous and the green tree was beautifully glittering in the sunlight. We changed our clothes and jumped in the dam. The females all put on the bikini to led the all of the males were slaver.

That night, we had a dinner at our resort, ate seafood. It was very perfect. There are a lot of fishes swimming in the dam. So beautiful!!! The food here was not too expensive. After dinner, we rest very early because everybody was very tired.

The next day morning, after breakfast we went to rent the bikes and rode to explore around the dam. It was so peaceful and romantic land. I had a very good feeling in this place. I love this place. I’ll keep it in my memory forever.

I thought this trip was very meaningful trip for me. Bye Bye green water, Bye Bye delicious seafood and Bye Bye Mae Ngad Dam.

I wander “Do you have went to Mae Ngad Dam?” “Is it peaceful and romantic in your opinion?” and “If you went to other place for your Songkran holiday?”
Please share your idea with us.

I have ever visited Mae Ngad Dam last year. It was a warm season as well. My friends and I swam and ate a lot of fish menus there. We also brought guitars to play music together. It was such a wonderful time of me too. I think the weather is really warm so people like to go to a dam in this season. I do agree that Mae Ngad Dam is very beautiful and peaceful. We can see only moutains and trees including a dam which is full of water around us. I think it is a good idea to go to the dam on Songkran Festival if you are a person who loves quiet. This year I celebrate the festival wiht my friends at a moat. I think it is crazy but fun because I am with my friends who I don't meet for long, that is enough to be happy and fun.

I went to Mae Ngad Dam when I was a university student(long time ago)! It was a nice, peaceful, natural and quiet place. At that time I had a camp and I had a good oppotunity to stay there four days and three nights. In the morning, when the sun rose it was a beautiful picture that no one can draw liked that. It had a good air that we could not find in Chiang Mai City. So if I have a time I will go there to visit her again.

I have never been to this place before. However, according to the picture you posted, I think this place is very beautiful. I will definitely go to visit this place one day. By the way, there is one thing that I am worried about. There are many places which have been polluted by garbage left behind by some irresponsible tourists. And, I hope that tourists are responsible enough to not pollute this place by littering.
