The water splashing festival is one of the most important traditional celebrations among ethnic minorities in southwestern China. It is also celebrated in several Southeast Asian countries such as Laos, where it is known as "Songkran." According to custom, the more water you are splashed with, the more blessings you receive. Water binds the peoples of China and Laos closely together, conveying their shared hopes for a happy life.
