In fact, when a whale dies and washes ashore, the locals drag it to the temple. A festival follows, complete with traditional songs and dancing. And the whale bones are buried at the temple for three years, then dug up and put on display. Inside this temple are the bones of a huge whale on display in glass cases which was found on the Vung Tau beach over 100 years ago. Local people and visitors come here to visit and pray for their health, business, happiness and fortune.
