Buddha's birthday is a national holiday in Korea. Next week on the 28th, he's turning 2500 years old (give or take a couple decades). In celebration and anticipation for it, Seoul had a few late night festivities going on including the lighting of Gyeongbok Palace for five days and the Lantern Festival and Parade.
