Buổi lễ chính thức bao gồm nhiều nghi lễ nhỏ, với những cái cúi đầu và những cử chỉ mang tính tượng trưng. Những người tham gia phải kiểm soát cảm xúc của họ và duy trì tính nghiêm ngặt.

Tuy nhiên, nhiều ngôi làng và bảo tàng dân gian trên khắp cả nước thường thực hiện các nghi lễ để giữ gìn những truyền thống còn tồn tại.
