Poson Festival – An honored religious event
Posted on by auburnSri Lanka is much more than a paradise of pristine beaches and diverse wildlife. The island has a rich historical and cultural heritage which is reflected in its distinctive festivals. A traveller seeking Sri Lanka tour packages can choose from the holiday packages Sri Lanka offered by Shanti Travel Sri Lanka which will help you experience local culture at its best. One of the island’s main Buddhist festivals, Poson is only second to the vibrant Wesak Festival. Poson celebrates the day on which Buddhism was introduced to Sri Lanka from India thus Buddhists participate with much honour, creating colourful lanterns. Cities all over the island shimmer with multi coloured lights embracing the festival spirit.
