(Baonghean.vn) - In the spring, sacred places such as temples and pagodas always attract visitors from all over to visit and offer incense. Although they have been rectified, in some places there are still too many donation boxes and beggars, causing unpleasant feelings.

| In addition, the commercialization at Con Temple is also worth discussing when there are too many donation boxes. In the photo is the donation box in the central hall. Photo: Ha Giang |

| According to Decision No. 2245/QD-BVHTTDL of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, each relic site cannot place more than 3 donation boxes. In addition, the Ministry also issued Directive 251 requiring local cultural sectors to promptly prevent negative manifestations (card shaking, card drawing, fortune telling, paid worship, disguised gambling, etc.); and placing too many donation boxes, placing offerings, and placing money and oil drops arbitrarily.
