Undergone a long history, Buddhism has deeply influenced the spiritual life as well as on customs of those countries. However, depending on factors of natural environment, society as well as local culture, in each country, Buddhism has shown a flexible approach, adapting itself to different conditions and local ideas.

The process of indigenization of Buddhism in each country is clearly expressed in a kind of folklore - Folklore Festival in Southeast Asian.
