The pagoda festival of Alaungdaw Kathapa Pagoda takes place on the full moon days of two consecutive months (Tabodwe and Tabaung) each year. Several pilgrims make the trip to the pagoda, starting with about 50 to 100 pilgrims per day in Tabodwe (~February) and peaking at around 7,000 to 8,000 on the full moon day of Tabaung (~March). Some make the trip perhaps not just to attend the pagoda festival but also to enjoy the scenery of one of Myanmar's main national parks.
