Your friends will turn green with envy when you tell them that you are going to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. 

Whether you are in Dublin or New York on March 17, you are guaranteed to get on this holiday. 

You might think that “green” means that you are an aspiring environmentalist, but not on St. Patrick's Day. 

You must be dressed from head to toe in green, otherwise you will stand out like a sore thumb. 

Do not forget to learn the Irish word cheers.

During Loy Krathong, which is celebrated throughout Thailand in November, rivers and lakes flicker with countless tiny plates 

carrying lighted candles. 

This is truly an amazing spectacle that only rivals the Jae Peng lantern festival, which is part of Loy Krathong, when hundreds of 

thousands of illuminated lanterns are released and hovering simultaneously in the night sky.


The festival is held in November every year. 

Although specific dates vary depending on when the full moon of the 12th month in the Thai calendar.

7.La Tomatina, Bunol, Valencia, Spain

Food fight that results in food fighting? 

There is only one Fiesta where you can take part in the biggest tomato tasting - this is La Tomatina in the city of Bunol in the Spanish 

municipality of Valencia. 

You will not need to wear your best dress for this. 

In fact, the worse the clothes, the better, because they will be soiled beyond recognition by the time the event ends.



La Tomatina may not be the longest of the holidays, but the one-hour battle is quite intense. 

First, you will be first doused with water from a hose, and then, when a cannon shot sounds, everything around

 you will throw tomatoes at each other.





8.Carnival in Rio, Brazil.

holds its own party.

anything like a real holiday.
