Traditional ritual activities.
Tho Khoi Temple (or Tran Hung Dao Temple) is a special temple in Thanh land, the place that sheltered and left the footprints of the national hero Hung Dao Vuong and King Tran in the resistance war against the second Mongol invaders in the spring of 1285.
Ha Trung district leaders opened the festival.
Faced with the power of the Yuan-Mongol invading army, King Hung Dao, with his intelligence, strategy, courage and resilience, led the court from Thien Truong across the sea to Thanh Hoa, finding a strategic location to retreat; and the land of Tam Giang - Tho Khoi, where three rivers converge: Tong Giang, Hoat Giang and Lung Khe, was the place chosen as the base to protect the safety of the court and focus on consolidating and building forces.
During his stay here, he and King Tran mingled with the people, were protected and nurtured by the people; young men in the region flocked to join the army. In just a short time, the army was fully formed, marched straight to the North, achieved glorious feats, and won resounding victories in Chuong Duong, Ham Tu, Tay Ket... liberating Thang Long, bringing the second resistance war against the Yuan-Mongol invaders to complete victory.
Villages in Yen Duong commune offer offerings at Tran Hung Dao Temple.
After his death, to show respect and gratitude, the people in the area built a temple to worship him right on the land where he and King Tran had stationed troops.

Comrade Lai The Nguyen, Standing Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Head of the Provincial National Assembly Delegation, stamped the first seal at the festival.
