Buddhists with imitations of the Tripitaka Koreana tied to their necks march at Haein Temple in Hapcheon, South Gyeongsang Province, southeastern South Korea, on April 8, 2022, during a Buddhist rite to mark Tripitaka Koreana Day, which was designated to protect it and publicize the Buddha's teachings. Listed on the UNESCO Memory of the World Register, Tripitaka Koreana, or Palmandaejanggyeong in Korean, comprises 13th-century Buddhist scriptures carved on more than 80,000 wooden printing blocks.
