"The whole year has the Full Moon of July/The whole year has the Full Moon of January", the rural markets in many rural areas of Nghe An preparing to welcome the Full Moon are as bustling as Tet markets.

Since the 13th day of the 7th lunar month, the atmosphere of the rural market preparing to welcome the 15th of the 7th lunar month has become bustling, the closer to the 15th, the more crowded it is. People go to the market, crowding all the entrances. In the photo: The road to Con market, Xuan Duong commune (Thanh Duong commune, old Thanh Chuong district). Photo: Huy Thu

Bananas seem to be the most popular. Every rural market on the full moon day sells a lot of bananas, both green and ripe. Many banana growers just hope that the bananas will ripen in time for the full moon or Tet holiday. Photo: Huy Thu

The price of bananas before the 15th of July this year at the rural market is not as expensive as in previous years. Each bunch of bananas for the king or beautiful royal bananas costs about 30,000 - 40,000 VND. Photo: Huy Thu

Paper offerings are important in the offerings for the Full Moon Festival, so people who go to the Full Moon Market often prioritize buying paper offerings early. The elderly who sell paper offerings are chosen by many people because they will give customers detailed instructions on how to buy and burn paper offerings on the Full Moon Festival. Photo: Huy Thu

The old ladies are also the ones who sell the most popular areca nuts. This year, areca nuts at the rural market cost from 3,000 to 5,000 VND each. People who go to the market often choose to buy green, large, young, soft areca nuts, suitable for offerings. Photo: Huy Thu

The countryside market on the full moon day also sells many special fruits, typical of each region such as persimmons, canarium fruit... People in many mountainous communes of Nghe An often believe that on the tray of offerings on the full moon day there must be a plate of canarium fruit, so many people go to the market to buy canarium fruit for the full moon day. Black canarium fruit at the full moon market costs from 80,000 to 100,000 VND/kg. Photo: Huy Thu

Mothers go to the Full Moon market not only to buy offerings and food for the Full Moon festival, but also to socialize, ask about health, and tell stories about the old Full Moon festival with many fond memories. Photo: Huy Thu

Depending on the locality, the rural market is held daily or only every other day according to regulations. People going to the rural market are excited to buy many clean, fresh, delicious products to worship on the Full Moon such as fruits, green tea, chicken... Photo: Huy Thu
