Thadingyut Festival of Lights, Myanmar

Summary

edit
Description
English: This picture was taken November 2018 at the Thadingyut Festival of Lights in Myanmar. This festival is held on the full moon of Thadingyut in October marking the end of Buddhist Lent. The three-day Festival of Lights during Thadingyut symbolises the return of the Buddha from heaven while angels are lighting the path of his descent to earth. During the festival, lots gather to make shapes by ropes and lit candles, that will later be attached to hot air balloons, who will lift the shapes for everyone to see. This festival is quite dangerous, since every year at least one balloon collapses on the big crowds after lifting from the earth, causing injuries and seldomly death.
