What is Diwali?
Diwali, known as the festival of lights, originated over 2,500 years ago in India and is celebrated by over 1 billion people worldwide. It symbolizes the victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance. Celebrations often feature parades, cultural performances, and elaborate light displays. Families come together to light traditional oil lamps called diyas, share sweets, and enjoy traditional meals.
