As spring arrives, a new vitality permeates the air, and Ba Vang Pagoda on Thanh Dang Mountain has donned a fresh, vibrant appearance while preserving its traditional essence.

A small market area with stalls offers tea and light-tasting food, inviting people to savor their flavors. The atmosphere is filled with the joy of visitors engaging in traditional folk games like "o an quan" (mandarin square capturing), "nhay sap" (cheraw dance), and "ca kheo" (stilt walking). Additionally, there is also an air of excitement as visitors await their turn to have a calligraphy drawing made, seeking peace and happiness ahead.
