Hoisting and hanging in such places normally experience wind and breeze which helps to flutter the prayer flags. In Buddhism, it is believed that fluttering of prayer flag is similar to reading the prayers or reciting prayers. The wind touching the prayer flags turns to holy air, purifying the rest of the place benefiting sentient beings.
