Shortcomings of Festivals

Although there are many interesting things people can get from the festivals, there are also some
disadvantage.
The first thing is that it is normally very costly to celebrate a festival. Due to the fact that most festivals
aim to preserve and develop the traditional cultural heritages, the government is willing to spend a lot of
money on this occasion. Besides, during the festival, most people do not work and only spend money on
preparing food and buying expensive gifts for their relatives and friends. That's also a reason why it is said
that a festival is often costly.
The second disadvantage is unsafe during a festival. It is estimated that there are hundred accidents
during a festival, particularly road accidents. There are many dangerous festivals like cow-racing, elephant
racing which may be very dangerous for people, especially for children. Moreover, in some festivals, when
rushing to join the events, people may also cause other people to get hurt.
The last disadvantage is festivals may affect the environment seriously. People tend to throw away waste
cans or bottles after a festival. Furthermore, trees along the roadsides may be damaged by the participants.
Noise pollution is result from the noise of the performances and the noise from the crowds.

Le Mat Snake Festival

Over the years, Le Mat Village in Long Bien District, Hanoi has been famous nationwide for not only snake catching and breeding, but also its unique festival. The festival is annually held on March 20-24 of the lunar calendar to worship the village’s tutelary god of the Hoang Family.

Legend told that one day while the daughter of King Ly Thai Tong (1072-1127) was boating with her maids on the Duong River, a big snake, which was considered a water monster, overturned the boat and caught the princess. The crew could do nothing to protect the princess. But a young man in the Hoang Family from Le Mat Village dove into the water, fought against the monster and, in the end, succeeded in killing it and saving the princess. King Ly Thai Tong was deeply impressed by the young man’s feat and gave him a reward in gold and court titles. But the hero graciously rejected the reward and, instead, requested the King to allow him and a number of poor people to reclaim land in the areas west of the capital in Thang Long. When the man passed away, the locals honored him as the village’s tutelary god and every year organize a festival to commemorate him.

Le Mat Village Festival consists of many unique rituals and folk activities, such as the water offering ceremony, the snake-killing dance, one of the ten ancient dances in the imperial capital of Thang Long and the ritual of catching carp in the village well. With many ancient cultural features, Le Mat Village Festival is one of the unique festivals in our country, attracting a large number of tourists.
