Buddha Purnima falls on the full moon of Boishakh and celebrates the birth, enlightenment, and passing of Gautama Buddha — tradition places all three on this same full-moon night. Monasteries across Bangladesh, especially in Chattogram and the Hill Tracts, fill with worshippers for prayers and processions.
