Diwali is a very old Indian Festival
Diwali lasts for five days
It means row of lamps
Diwali is also known as the Festival of lights
Day One
On the first day people clean the front of their house and make beautiful designs on the ground called ‘rangoli’ using colourful powders. Food is prepared and oil lamps are lit.
Day Two
On the second day, people take an oil bath in the morning and at night light lamps and burn firecrackers.
Day Three
On the third day, people worship Lakshmi, the Goddess of Wealth. Businesses hope that Lakshmi will bring them good luck in the coming year.
Day Four
On the fourth day, people celebrate the God Krishna. In some parts of India the fourth day is also celebrated as Annakoot which means mountain of food. This is because gifts of food are given to the Gods in the shape of a mountain piled before them.
