Hippies with Attitude

40 tausend Teilnehmer, 120 tausend Beutel mit bunter Kreidefarbe und schon hat man das größte "Festival of Colours" der westlichen Welt, jährlich in Utah. Die Mormonen eben :-)


Every year the Hare Krishna Temple in Spanish Fork, Utah puts on the biggest Holi celebration in the Western Hemisphere. In 2011 the Spanish Fork Police department estimated that over 40,000 people attended in the first day alone of the two-day festival. Organizers carefully rationed their stash of approximately 120,000 bags of colored powder.
Who knew Mormon country could be so psychedelic. Beautiful.
