The opening ceremony of Tay Yen Tu Spring Festival is a major and prominent cultural and spiritual event of Bac Ninh province, usually taking place in the first lunar month every year. The festival has a profound meaning, closely associated with the journey of propagating Buddhism of King Tran Nhan Tong on the road from Dong Yen Tu (Quang Ninh) to Tay Yen Tu (Bac Ninh). This is not only a spiritual festival but also an opportunity for tourists and Buddhists to return to their roots, to contemplate the lifestyle in harmony with nature and traditional culture.
