In the heart of Bangkok, the Capella Bangkok is offering a respite from the pulsating heat of Thai summertime. This April, as Thailand pulsates with the vibrant spirit of ‘sanuk’ in celebration of the Songkran festival, the Capella Bangkok launches its Jai Yen Yen package, an invitation to indulge in a fusion of tradition and relaxation, emblematic of the Thai New Year.
Songkran, the herald of the new year on the Thai calendar, is an affair of jubilation, where the air is thick with the scent of jasmine and the sounds of laughter and water splashing reverberate in the streets. It’s a time when families reunite and friends gather, drenching each other in water in a symbolic act of purification and blessing, a vibrant testament to the Thai ethos of joy and community.
The Jai Yen Yen package, aptly named to evoke the serenity of keeping one’s heart cool amidst the heat, is the Capella Bangkok’s ode to this festive season. Nestled on the river’s edge, the resort’s Riverfront Premier rooms serve as a private theatre to the ballet of daily life along the riverbanks, offering a unique vantage point from which to savour the serene chaos of Bangkok.
