Co-Ho new rice crop ceremony

[vivian]

Lat village is populated by Co Ho minority and is located at the foot of Lang Bian Mountain, about 12 km from Dalat city. At night, there are some parties held by Ma or Co Ho minorities at this village on request, in which you can take part. Gathering around the fire, they will show all visitors how a new rice crop ceremony is normally celebrated and how they pray for good weather and a good crop without any attacks from wild animals. Normally, the ceremony begins with the pray to the Gods by a holy man in the village, followed by a wine-throwing ceremony to pray for good luck. Then you can join the ethnic people drinking Can Wine (I already wrote another tip about this kind of wine.) and singing folk songs. These parties will take place in the evening and last until the next morning.
