The spectacle draws inspiration from the pagoda’s spiritual history, with the help of a world-class sound and lighting system, but the sounds of the spectacle keeps reflecting the peaceful sounds of rural Vietnam, including wooden drums and brass gongs, night crickets, and flowing water. The spectacle also blends different elements of traditional music styles, including Quan Ho and Ca Tru, both of which are now recognized by UNESCO as an intangible World Heritage.
