Deepavali Festival
Deepavali, also known as Diwali, is the Festival of Lights celebrated by Hindus in Sri Lanka and around the world. One of the busiest festivals in Sri Lanka, it usually falls in November, and symbolises the triumph of light over darkness and good over evil.
Homes are decorated with oil lamps, colourful rangoli designs, and fireworks illuminate the night sky. Families exchange sweets and gifts, and prayers are offered to deities, invoking blessings for prosperity and happiness.
