It took a bit of nifty googling to find out what this massively important religious festival was all about. It's Buddha's naming day. The official date shifts a bit, but always lands in May. And, more importantly it provides a day off. Except it landed on Saturday this year, so no day off for me.
Here are some pictures and videos from out and about in Singapore last Saturday.
