Have you ever thought about celebrating the New Year in a different way?What about reading this article? Diwali takes place in India,in the Hindu month of Aswin(October/November).Some lines about India:It is a state in Southern Asia with a population of 1.000.000.000 approximately.It is a federal republic whose main language is Hindu;Engish is the official second language due to the British Empire(1774-1947).Hinduism is the religion more practiced.
Diwali lasts four continuous days and ends with the celebration of the Hindu New Year.On the first day,people decorate their homes with rangolis,traditional patterns which people draw on the floor.They light hundreds of tiny oil lamps and make traditional sweets.On the second day,,it is traditional to get up early and take a bath before sunrise.On the third day,they celebrate with enormous fireworks displays.Finally,the New Year's Day,they visit family and colleagues dressed up in new clothes and jewellery and give them sweets and gifts.
