About Hungry Ghost Festival
The Hungry Ghost Festival is a traditional Chinese festival observed by many in Hong Kong to honor ancestors and appease wandering spirits. During the seventh lunar month, participants burn incense and joss paper offerings to ensure spirits are well-provided for in the afterlife. It is a significant cultural observance focused on filial piety and ancestral worship.
