Happy Holi!

Last weekend thousands traveled to The Sri Sri Radha Krishna Temple in Spanish Fork, UT to celebrate Holi, an ancient Hindu festival. It is also known as The Festival of Colors. For many it is a religious event, but everyone is welcome. Holi celebrates the spring equinox, victory of good over evil, and is a time to forget your troubles and forgive those that have done you wrong.

The Spanish Fork celebration included live music, local food trucks, group yoga, and of course the throwing of colored powder. Regardless of personal beliefs everyone involved was able to enjoy the themes of peace, love unity, and respect.

Colors Everywhere!

The festival of colors is just one example of the hundreds of events that take place near Provo, UT every year. Come to Utah, learn English, and experience cultures from around the world!
