"Ancestor Day" is a Buddhist celebration celebrated from the first to the fifteenth days of the eighth lunar month (Autumn in the Western calendar). Monks and lay people celebrate the day differently. Monks complete their Rains Retreat. Lay people devotees make offerings on behalf of their ancestors.
