Vietnam is a country that boasts a vibrant array of cultural festivals that each showcases a different facet of its bejewelled society. One such example amongst many others is the festival of Keo Pagoda, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-chua-huong-dong-huong-tich-ha-noi-tour-du-lich-le-hoi-chua-huong-tu-ha-noi.html Tour Chùa Hương] which lasts for three days in honour of the famed Buddhist Monk of yore, Khong Lo. The festival is held twice each year; in the spring of the fourth day of the first lunar month and in the autumn from the 13th to the 15th day of the ninth lunar month. Emphasis, though, is given to the ninth lunar month's 14th day as it is not only Khong Lo's birthday but the 100th day after the official date of his death.

Incense is once again offered, this time to Lord Buddha. The festival continues on to the second day with more traditional games and high-spirited entertainment amongst all festival goers. These include duck-catching and rice-cooking competitions as well as the highly intense yet exciting firecracker-hurling competition. Tourists who have taken part in the [http://www.search.com/search?q=festival festival] will undoubtedly say, though, that the highlight of the entire festival is the boat rowing dance on land; performed by 12 people in colorfully vivid costumes who mimic the motions rowing a boat while chanting in rhythm to the beats of a drum and one another holding a wooden fish.

Mireuksa was the largest temple in the ancient Korean kingdom of Baekje. It was established by the 30th ruler of the Baekje Kingdom, King Mu in 602. In 1980, its site was excavated in Iksan City in South Korea. The stone pagoda at Mireuksa is the largest pagoda in Korea. It is also one of two extant Paekche pagodas as well as being among the oldest pagodas in that country. According to Samgungnyusa (Memorabilia of the Three Dynasty), King Mu and his queen saw Maitreya Buddha appearing at the pond down the Mt. Yonghwasan during their way to the Sajasa Temple. Soon after that, on the request of the queen, the king let the pond reclaimed and halls for the Buddhas image, pagodas and ambulatory built. The nine-story wooden pagoda was established and stood in the center of the complex. The pagoda is also said to have been the work of Paekche master craftman Abiji.
