Chikhal Kalo* Traditional Goan festival

_*Chikhal Kalo* is a traditional mud festival that celebrates Krishna’s childhood.
The festival happens in the Devki Krishna temple in Marcel, Ponda Taluka in North Goa district of the Indian state of Goa._
The word Chikhal Kalo means “Mud Bath.” and the celebration pays homage to the profound bond shared between the farming community of Goa and Mother Earth.
So beautiful to see , they have all shed all their inhibitions !_
_India is so full of such pleasant surprises.
The Tomato festival in Spain – La Tomatina – is so much talked about and visited, while this is hardly known!
Celebrating Krishna’s birth in such a down to earth manner
The Portugese tried to bury it, but India rises time & again
