Kuya Kim joins Phuket's Vegetarian Festival

By

The country’s Trivia King Kim Atienza experiences one of Phuket’s most famous annual events - the Vegetarian Festival - in the second part of “Matanglawin’s” Phuket adventure this Sunday (Nov 2).

Matanglawin

The Vegetarian Festival is not only a celebration of all things green, but also Thais’ way of getting closer to the gods by eating vegetarian food and participating in processions.

Some devotees would even pierce their bodies, most often their cheeks, with different objects because they believe that the gods or spirits possess them so that they can withstand the pain. Some also walk on live coals and climb meters up and down ladders made of blades.

Find out more of Thailand’s religious traditions and beliefs this Sunday (Nov 2) on “Matanglawin,” 10 AM on ABS-CBN. For more updates, follow @matanglawintv on Twitter or like www.facebook.com/matanglawintv.
