A local seller, Kumbh festival

ICH Research & Documentation »

Description
The festival of Kumbh becomes a source of income for the local inhabitants, as they sell small whimsical items like fans, flutes, and masks, and earns their livelihood. These small objects act as souvenirs and add a playful nature to the otherwise intense religious festival. It also caters to the tourists who have come to witness the festival for its sheer magnitude rather than pure piety.
