In the Jangpura District of South Delhi is the Bhogal Buddha Vihar Temple. It’s approximately 100 years old and is the gathering place for the small community of Thais that live in the city. During Songkron, the Thai New Years Celebration, they all gathered to celebrate.

The temple is part of the community and this was shown with donating food and drinks to the people in need. In addition they had a traditional celebration with activities like water splashing for the kids.

The traditional celebration included chanting with the monks, worshiping the ancestors and pouring water on the hands of the monks. These are the traditional activities for the Thai New Year.

In addition to the Thai residents of the area the Thai ambassador came to take part with her fellow countrymen.

It was fun to participate with Thais that are living away from home. It’s a very close community and we got to enjoy their hospitality.
