FESTIVAL OF LIGHT..

in #festival7 years ago

Autumn season brings festivities all around.. A few days back we Indians have celebrated the festival of light called 'Diwali'. It was celebrated throughout India. During Diwali, prayers were offered to Lakshmi, Goddess of wealth . People cleaned their houses, painted it, bought new clothes, bursted crackers, houses were decorated with colourful lights etc..20171019_195455.jpg20171019_235558.jpg
Diwali without Rangoli is incomplete ..Rangoli is also known as Alpana made of different colours like red,green,blue,yellow etc,Rangoli is derived from the word 'Rang' which means colours.Earthern lamps are burnt to resemble the festival of light..FB_IMG_1508644864949.jpg20171019_213611.jpg
