lotus lantern festival (buddha’s birthday event)
2006.05.01 - 13:05
lotus lantern festival: it was an all-day event in celebration of the
coming buddha’s birthday (equivalent to Christmas). In Korea, both
Christmas and Buddha’s birthday are national holidays - fair, isnt it?
its may 5th this year (based on lunar calendar). am looking forward to
visiting my grandma’s temple in my hometown.
