Every family have to go to pagoda at least 7 pagodas for this 15 days. Only from the early morning from 3 AM to 11:30, pagodas are open for this ceremony. Good luck for who live near a pagoda ;-).

It is fascinating to watch the rituals and prayers people offer to their ancestors. I couldn’t but think of my ancestors and how important a persons family history is!
