The Mongols primarily adhere to Tibetan 

Buddhism, which is known as


Lamaism. Prior to the introduction of Buddhism however, people tended to
follow Shamanism.
The makeup of religious belief in the country is currently fairly diverse.
Approximately 1/3 of people are Shamans, 1/3 are Buddhist and the
majority of the remaining population are atheist with small pockets of 
Muslims and Christians (assessed as 3% and 2% respectively).
Extended families typically live near or with each other. This
network offers extensive support to the family members.
The Culture of Mongolia has been heavily influenced by the Mongol nomadic way of life.
Hospitality is so important and so real in the countryside of the nomad family. It’s in the
culture to know how to receive guests. Because of 4 seasons of Mongolia, and because
of pasturing the herd, herders move one place to another. At their home, they will always
have some tsai (traditional salty milk tea or black tea) and some food (usually traditional
biscuits), some small bread pieces, dairy products ready to be offered to the possible
unscheduled guests.
CORPUS CHRISTI The procession on the main day takes place around midday. The 
Plaza de Armas is occupied with locals and visitors who are willing to see the
attractively decorated saints. Corpus Christi is a very colorful and traditional ritual. For

In Peru, it is typical for friends and family to visit one another unannounced. However,
it is considered polite to make advance arrangements.
It is considered rude to turn down an invitation to join someone at their home. Such

aren’t young anymore) stay in their parent’s house until late…
very late.
The Filipinos are family. Filipinos take pride in their religion. While most Filipinos
practise Christianity as their religion, Islam and other indigenous faiths are also seen
in movement. Their religious spirit can be witnessed during festival
as a respect to tradition, attachment to families is absolutely a Philippine
culture. Culture as it is, and it cannot be argued. It does not mean that the
children are uncapable to live independently, but it is a form of love for
parents.
 In addition, a cheerful family would typically be ready to accommodate and spend
time with the visitors.  To add to that, Filipino families are often more than willing to
share not only their meals but their entire home as well.  As a matter of fact, Filipinos
would usually greet their visitors with the phrase “Feel at home!” to ensure that they
are at ease during their stay.
