Diwali is a five-day grand celebration, known as "Hanukkah", to celebrate victory, light and wisdom. During Diwali, people will hang lanterns, set off fireworks and share food and gifts.

The origin of Diwali can be traced back to ancient India and Nepal. It is said that this festival is to celebrate the return of King Mahabuti after the massacre and rebuild the city of Apeng. At this time, the whole city was illuminated by countless lights. In this context, this festival is endowed with the symbolic meaning of "light".

Traditional customs of Diwali:

To show respect for the gods, people cleaned the room and painted it. People wear new clothes and are determined to start a new life. Businessmen stopped using their old books and started using new ones. At dusk, every household and shop lights up all kinds of lights, and fireworks fill the sky. Friends and family get together to exchange gifts.

The climax of Diwali is to bathe in the sacred river to purify the body and mind. Children must go to the river to wash away the dirt and purify their hearts. In addition to praying to the gods to protect the health of the whole family, people also pay special tribute to their goddess "Lakshmi".
