【Bon appétit !】 Dating back to the 16th century, the That Luang Buddhist festival is held over three-seven days during the full moon of the twelfth lunar month. Before dawn, thousands join in a ceremonial offering and group prayer, followed by a procession. For days afterward, a combined trade fair and carnival offers handicrafts, flowers, games, concerts, and dance shows. The festival is one of the most popular national holidays in Lao and attracts pilgrims from all over the country. （https://www.officeholidays.com/holidays/lao/that-luang-festival）
