Phra Nakhon Khiri, Thailand

New Year"s Eve is celebrated in many countries to see out the old year and hope for the promises of the new one. The traditions of different nations can be quite creative when it comes to saying farewell to the year. Celebrators in Thailand might visit a temple for good luck or watch the fireworks illuminating Phra Nakhon Khiri, also known as "holy city hill," based in the historical park of the same name. Wherever you celebrate, have a great one.
