It is a time to reflect on Buddha's journey and renew devotion to his teachings by sharing blessings and food and offering support to one another.
On Saturday, May 18, the Queens Gardens was transformed into a beautiful plaza of reflection with an array of flowers, lanterns, candles, and a Buddha statue gracing the local park.
As the community mingled, lit candles, and participated in meditation led by the Venerable Phra Satit Thitadhammo, a profound sense of connection and unity was palpable.
News photographer Rechelle Zammit attended to capture the celebrations.
