The Chiang Mai Thailand Flower Festival is the Thai equivalent of the Rose Bowl Parade in the USA. It is a three day festival with elaborate displays, great food, and a parade.
Watch some of the amazing videos shot by allthai during the festival:

Groundhog Day is a holiday that has always perplexed me. Every year it makes me thing about how absurd all holidays are, and question how we come to these traditions. But the I see them standing with their top hats and walking sticks and I realize that it doesn’t really matter. Even if it is seemingly crazy, it’s traditional and it’s fun. It brings a community together for something. That’s all that really matters.
