This festival has been handed down from one generation to another. Traditionally, local people line up both sides of the canal and throw lotus flowers onto the boat carrying the replica of "Luang Pho To" Buddha image. These lotus flowers are meant as homage to the Triple Gem - the Lord Buddha, Dhamma and the Sangka. Also, the Bang Phli local people will also throw lotus flower onto visitors’ boats as a gesture to invite them join in their merit-making.
