Hindus celebrate the New Year in October or November with a festival called Divali, the festival of lights. It can take up to 5 days.

It is a very exciting and colorful holiday. People clean their house to welcome the New Year and open the windows to invite Hindu goddess of wealth, Lakshmi, to enter. People put many lights, so that she can find her way in. That’s why the name of the festival is called the festival of lights.
