April 8 of the lunar calendar (May 8 of the Gregorian calendar this year) is Sakyamuni's birthday, that is, Buddha's birthday. It is also the largest festival in the annual event of Buddhism.
In order to celebrate the first Buddha's birthday after the lifting of social distance restrictions and the restoration of daily life, Korean temples have successively held lantern parades, lantern burning parties, Buddha's birthday ceremonies, special performances and other activities since early April.
