Lantern parade for Buddha's birthday returns to Seoul
The lantern parade celebrating Buddha’s birthday returns to the streets of Seoul after three years, as previous ones had been canceled due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
What started as a simple religious ritual is now a exhuberant spring festival where streets, temples and shopping centers are adorned with thousands of lotus lanterns. During the parade, the highlight of the week-long event, participants walk almost three kilometers holding lanterns, pushing large scale lanterns and performing as bystanders clap and cheer them on.
