Cambodia just finished Pchum Ben, a week of visiting pagodas to honor the ancestral spirits. Most Cambodians, at least, visit 3 pagodas.
In their finest clothes, Cambodians line up in pagodas to offer incense, food and money. You see them in the streets carrying their rice containers. From these, they scoop rice over bowls lined up in long tables at the pagoda. In between these bowls were trays for the money offering. Bundles of hundred Khmer bills were offered. Pagodas provide music to make the days festive.
