Four Most Weird Festivals in the World

Four Most Weird Festivals in the World Festival of Color -- India

The Indian festival of color is a traditional festival in India. It is derived from the Indian myth. This festival usually lasts two days according to Indian calendar, which usually falls in February or March. On the first night, people use high bonfire logs and dry shrubs to celebrate it. The next day is called Dhuleti. Men and women, old and young with their faces painted with colorful paint, all gather in the streets and exchange gifts. Family members gather together to greet the arrival of spring and celebrate the victory of expelling demons.

In the past years, Thai have developed sprinkling water on this traditional celebration ceremony into the largest "water war" in the world. Anyone who dares to stand in the street on this festival will be the target of garden hoses and water balloon bombs. The body will be wet through, so remember to bring towels.


Four Most Weird Festivals in the World
Night Radish Festival -- Mexico

This name may sound like a horror movie of vegetarianism. In fact, this attractive festival is the former Christmas celebration of Mexico. On December 23rd every year, thousands of people will gather at the main plaza of Culver City and appreciate the works of sculptors who are vegetarian. These sculptor masters created statues of great saints and Jesus. Of course, all the sculptor are made of radishes.
