Pchum Benh Festival

Yours sincerely taking a look

Wow!!! Its Pchum Benh festival is here again. How time fly real fast! Pchum Benh festival is mainly celebrated by Cambodia people across the land. During the festivities, people goo to various Pagodas to offer prayers to their gods. They take money, food usually (rice) and other gift items to mocks- the all male dominated holy shrine (Pagoda) according to Buddhism teaching.

During this period, many who live far away from home return to mark the celebrations with families and friends. The capital city automatically become a ghost city as many residents take to various provinces for a much needed holiday. At various provinces, people gather to play poker, Khmer traditional games and with an open dance floor to trail themselves.

My strong advise to everyone is that whatever we going to be doing, people should be themselves and avoiding getting drunk which would eventually endanger lives and properties. We can't afford to loose people each time there's festivity. Drive safe within and outside city, avoid whatever may lead into calamity and be patriotic even when no one is watching you. Above all, take time to relax and enjoy your holiday!!!
