Diwali

What would the king know of Diwali?

Diwali is celebrated in India.

The vibrant colors of Indian festivals like Diwali and Holi are a sight to behold.

The main Indian holiday Diwali symbolizes the victory of good over evil.

On Diwali holiday, also known as the “festival of lights,” Indians decorate their homes with candles and lanterns and set off fireworks.

During the Diwali celebrations, the whole of India glows so much that it can be seen from space!

Diwali takes place in October-November and lasts for five days.

When the legendary Indian king Rama returned from exile, people lit his path with lamps, and this day was called Diwali.

On the first of five days of Diwali, Indians clear their homes of clutter, light fires, and buy jewelry and kitchen utensils.

An integral attribute of Diwali is rangoli — vivid patterns of colored sand and rice water that confuse evil spirits.
