Festival of light

Diwali, one of Hinduism’s most important festivals, is dedicated to Lakshmi, the Hindu goddess of wealth, and symbolises the victory of good over evil

Thailand Lantern Festivals, also known as the Thai Festivals of Lights, refer to two festivals in Thailand: Yi Peng Floating Lantern Festival (also written as Yee Peng) and Loy Krathong Festival (also written as Loi Krathong).

Diwali (Divali) is a major Hindu religious festival that lasts for five days during the lunar months of Ashvina and Karttika (October–November). The name is derived from the Sanskrit term dipavali, meaning “row of lights,” which are lit on the new-moon night.

“Happy Diwali!!!”
