Nha Trang hosts kids’ gala

      The Long Phu Tourist Co will organise a Flower Fruit Mountain Festival for children next Wednesday, to coincide with the Sea Festival 2009 in the central coastal city of Nha Trang.
The festival will be held on Hon Lao Island, home to nearly 1,000 monkeys. The island, a 10 minute boat ride from Nha Trang, will be decorated to look like the Flower Fruit Mountain in the famous novel Journey to the West wherein the monkey King Sun Wukong is born from a rock.
Children at the festival can disguise themselves as Xuanzang and his three protectors who traveled to India to obtain Buddhist texts.
