SUMMARY:Boun Ork Phansa (The end of buddhist lent)
DESCRIPTION:Boun Ork Phansa is the last day of Buddhist Lent. It occurs on the 15th day of the 11th month of the lunar calendar. In the morning\, donations and offering are made at temples around the country. In the evening candlelight processions are held around the temples while hundreds around of colorful floats decorated with flowers\, incense and candles are set adrift down and rivers giving thanks to the river spirit (Lai Heua Fai). They are said to pay respect to the Buddha and to thank the mother of rivers for providing water for our lives as well as to ask for blessing and to float the bad luck for the past year away\, enabling the good luck to flow in. Villagers who live far from rivers set up model boat made of banana stems and decorated with flowers and candlelight\, while other simply light up some candles in front of their houses and do their prayer\, wishing for good luck. This colorful ritual has been carried on by Lao people for thousands of years.

SUMMARY:Lhai Heua Fai\, Festival of the Boats of Light in Luang Prabang Province
DESCRIPTION:Boun Lai Heua Fai is a festival for the Phanang Naga which is held during Boun Xouang Heua in order to bring good luck. Each village in many provinces makes and decorates a boat. The boats are then paraded through the town\, at night they are lunched onto the river and ceremoniously set on fire as offerings to spirits. This festival involves floating the ritual flowers onto the river\, to send of bad luck and give thanks to the water spirits. When holding boat race\, people ritually reclaim the land from the Naga\, chasing them out from fields and streams and back into the Mekong River.
