Pu Nha Thau Temple Festival bears the strong cultural identity of the ethnic groups in Western Nghe An in general and the ethnic groups in Ky Son district in particular.

In addition to the above values, the opening of Pu Nha Thau Temple Festival also has the meaning of promotion, meeting the needs of tourism, creating cultural exchange relationships between ethnic groups in the region and visitors from near and far. However, due to the work of preserving and promoting cultural heritage in Ky Son district still having many shortcomings compared to the potential, the promotion of the value of those traditional festivals is still limited. Regular expenditure for preventing the degradation of local relics is also limited. Therefore, there are still difficulties in developing the scale of Pu Nha Thau Temple Festival!.
