Every year, at the beginning of spring, the boat racing festival at Cờn Temple (Hoàng Mai town, Nghệ An province) attracts tens of thousands of tourists and fishermen. On the Mai Giang River, hundreds of boats adorned with colorful flags and flowers, accompanied by the lively sounds of drums and cheers, create a vibrant and bustling atmosphere. The festival is not only a cultural and religious activity to commemorate ancestors and pray for favorable weather and calm seas, but also an opportunity to demonstrate the solidarity and community strength of the fishermen in the coastal region of Nghệ An.
