In the seventh lunar month, when the sky is dyed in a quiet color, when the scent of lotus still lingers in the wind and the sound of temple bells ringing throughout the mountains and forests, is also the time when people's hearts are gently moved towards the Vu Lan season of filial piety.
Sacred Mountain
On the top of Cam Mountain - the sacred mountain in the heart of An Giang , Vu Lan season becomes a journey of return, not only finding the source of love but also finding the source of peace in the soul.

For generations, Cam Mountain has been considered the most sacred religious center in the West. The towering mountain, covered with white clouds all year round, is like a roof protecting all people. People believe that the spiritual energy gathered here not only brings mystery, but is also a source of energy that helps people's souls to be cleansed and more peaceful after days of worries.
During Vu Lan season, people from all over the countryside flock to the mountain. Some go to burn incense in memory of their deceased parents, others bring with them the wish to pray for peace for their parents, their families, and their people. On the winding, tree-covered paths, the pilgrims' footsteps become slow and quiet, as if to make room for the echoing voice of their hearts : "Filial piety is the root of morality, and also the path leading to peace."
Standing before the majestic Maitreya Buddha statue towering on the mountain top, his gentle eyes and peaceful smile seem to soothe the child's heart. Suddenly, all the hardships seem to disappear, leaving only silence and purity. People gently clasp their hands, bow their heads, and whisper prayers: wishing for their parents' health, family prosperity, and the peace of all living beings. It is not only a religious ritual, but also a way to return, a way to find oneself.
All wounds are soothed and healed
Vu Lan at Cam Mountain is not only about the sacredness of the ritual, but also a journey of healing. Amidst the solemn sound of the temple bells, amidst the golden color of the lanterns shimmering in the night, each person's soul seems to be purified. We learn to let go of anger, to be relieved of the imperfect things, to replace them with gratitude and love. At that moment, Cam Mountain is not only a tourist destination, but also a place for people to find inner peace.
Return to reside with deep spiritual values
Journey to let the heart lead the way!
Vu Lan is a season of filial piety, but it is also a season for people to learn to love more and live more virtuously. And Cam Mountain, with its thousand-year-old spirit, has become a place to help people connect with that source of love. There, people not only find blessings for their families, but also find a precious asset: peace of mind.
Each lantern is a message
This Vu Lan Festival, let your heart guide you to Cam Mountain. Light a stick of incense, release a lantern of wishes, let go of your worries, and open your arms to life. Because happiness, sometimes, does not lie in great things; it is simply living a filial life, being together, and having peace in your own heart.
