Every early spring, the Whale Worship Festival is held – a distinctive folk festival of coastal residents in Cai Cung. It’s a spiritual tradition to honor the Whale God – the Nam Hai General – who is believed to have saved many fishers from storms, bringing prosperity and happiness. The festival is celebrated annually on the 8th, 9th, and 10th of the first lunar month. In addition to the Whale Temple facing the sea, locals have also built Ba Temple with a large, gentle-faced statue looking out to sea, praying for good weather, abundant harvests, and prosperity.
