Twice a day, a long line of monks approach the temple gates on both sides of the street. Lay people are waiting to present them with the yellow and white Khao Phansa flowers. Some also wash the feet of the monks with water as they believe it is an act of cleansing of their mind and soul. The monks then climb the steep steps to the top of the hill. Then, after paying respects to the footprint, they descend the other side where even more followers are waiting.
