Pagoda festivals ((ビルマ語:ဘုရားပွဲ); ''paya pwe'') are regular festivals found throughout Burma (Myanmar) that commemorate major events in pagoda's history, including the founding of a pagoda and the crowning of the pagoda's hti (umbrella). Pagoda festivals are dictated by the Burmese religious calendar and often are held several days at a time. Major events in a pagoda festival typically do not coincide with Uposatha (Buddhist Sabbath) days, during which devout Buddhists observe the Eight Precepts.〔 The majority of pagoda festivals are held during the dry season, from the months of Tazaungmon (November) to Tabaung (March). More well-known pagoda festivals often attract pilgrims from throughout the country. Pagoda festivals are similar in nature to agricultural shows (country fairs) or carnivals, and form a significant important part of cultural life, particularly in the countryside. During pagoda festivals, temporary bazaars (including food stalls and merchandise stands), entertainment venues (including anyeint dramas, yoke the performances, lethwei matches, and arcades) are set up in the vicinity of the pagoda.〔 ==Major pagoda festivals== *Shwe Settaw Pagoda Festival (Minbu Township, Magwe Region)〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Let's enjoy Mann Shwe Sattaw Pagoda Festival )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Yearly Pilgrimage To Mann Shwe Set Taw )〕 - Tabodwe to Tabaung *Ananda Temple Festival (Bagan, Mandalay Region) - Pyatho *Shwezigon Pagoda Festival (Bagan, Mandalay Region) - *Kyaikhtiyo Pagoda Festival (Kyaikhto, Mon State) - Nadaw *Shwedagon Pagoda Festival (Yangon, Yangon Region) - Tabaung *Alaungdaw Kathapa Pagoda Festival (Sagaing Region) - Tabodwe *Shwe Sayan Pagoda Festival (Thaton, Mon State) - *Shwesayan Pagoda Festival (Patheingyi Township, Mandalay Region)〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Shwesayan Pagoda Festival )〕 - Tabaung *Myathalun Pagoda Festival (Magwe Region) - Thadingyut *Shite-thaung Temple Festival (Mrauk U, Rakhine State) - *Hpaung Daw U Pagoda Festival (Shan State) - Thadingyut *Kyaik Khauk Pagoda Festival (Thanlyin Township, Yangon Region) - Tabodwe *Shwesandaw Pagoda Festival (Twante Township, Yangon Region) - Tagu *Botahtaung Pagoda Festival (Yangon) - Nadaw *Mawtinzun Pagoda Festival (Ngapudaw Township, Ayeyarwady Region) - Tabaung *Shwemawdaw Pagoda Festival (Bago) - Tagu 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「pagoda festival」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
