Vishnu Festival
It's that time of year again for the Vishnu Festival celebrated at the temple near my apartment. If you missed the large lit display on the street corner, the sound of local instruments, lit up temple, chariot, and sheer number of people would signal something special was going on. As in other festivities, the balloon seller is a common fixture, hoping to capitalize on the event. Note the beautiful saris the women are wearing, the large kolam on the ground, and the long garlands of flowers.
