Flower Festival

---- Info:

Every year when nature wakes again, the elders go on a journey to the Twin Lakes to honour Mother Nature. On their way shijis gather around them, accompanying the elders and helping to collect all kinds of flowers, which are used to celebrate nature and bloom of new life. Every shiji gets decorated with flower crowns and other accessories, often wearing entire gowns dedicated to flowers. Every night, self-made lanterns are launched into the air and sent out onto the lakes, bathing sky and water into a warm light. Traditions say bonds made during this time last forever.
