The highlight of this year's festival is the Duc Ong procession with the largest scale ever.
There are about 40 processions with nearly 3,000 people from businesses, 55 neighborhoods and local ceremonial delegations.
The fleet of ships and boats parading at sea has about 30 vehicles.
The ground procession combined with the sea parade fleet recreated part of the patrol and guarding activities of the Northeast sea area, arousing the Dong A spirit of the Tran Dynasty army and people.
Cua Ong Temple is a special national historical and cultural relic, associated with Hung Nhuong Dai Vuong Tran Quoc Tang and generals who contributed to protecting the Northeast sea of the Fatherland.
The Cua Ong Temple Festival is held annually on the 3rd-4th days of the 2nd and 3rd-4th days of the 8th lunar month, to commemorate the merits of Duc Ong Tran Quoc Tang and his predecessors.
The Cua Ong Temple Festival has been a national intangible cultural heritage since 2016.
