OAK WATSA FESTIVAL

Marking the end of  Buddhist Lent.   Monks are permitted to travel.  In the evening, lighting of candles in and around the temples pays respects to Buddha and his mother.

It is also a time for people making new vows, praying for forgiveness for sins committed in the past year and to get rid of bad luck or disease.

Small ornamental floats decorated with flowers, candles lit and money are floated along a river bank.  This signifies that it'll takes away any troubles of the owners.  Come and join us at: -
