双击The water sprinkling festival originated in Persia in the 5th century A.D. at that time, it was named "Pohan Hu opera". After that, "Pohan Hu opera" was introduced from Persia to Myanmar, Thailand and Xishuangbanna, Yunnan, China through India.

双击he Dai new year, also known as the water sprinkling Festival, is celebrated for three to seven days. The first day is called "netmold" (death).

The next day is called "wangnao" (smelly meaning). This day is considered unclean. We should bathe, wash our hair, cut our hair, change our clothes, wash the Buddha statues and pagodas. At night, we will hold a parade, set off fireworks and Kongming lights, and send away all the diseases, disasters and dirty things of the year, so as to enter the new year cleanly. In the Dai calendar, these two days are regarded as "empty days", which are not called in the old year or included in the new year.
