The Damyang Bamboo Festival, one of the most representative Korean festivals, will be held in the Juknokwon and Gwanbangjerim area May 3 to 8.
The festival, which will be held under the theme “The Breath of a Thousand Years, The Story of the Green Bamboo Grove,” will comprise various programs that wish people great luck. There will be amusing programs, such as a game to find treasures hidden in a bamboo forest, an auction, and K-pop performances. Visitors can fly wish lamps or set wish boats afloat at night. They can taste Damyang’s famous bamboo-using dishes (grilled beef patty, rice steamed in bamboo, etc.) and the traditional food of Vietnam, Japan, and China.
