Girls dancing during Basant

Saturday 15 August 2009


Someone has sent this dated picture of a group of Pakistani girls dancing fervently on the occasion of the festival of Basant. As is customary during the spring kite festival, the colour yellow is prominently displayed during the festival – in peoples’ dresses, the embellishment of the kites and the decorations throughout the city.

Basant is an ancient tradition of the city of Lahore and its adjoining areas, comprising kite flying, all night dancing and even floodlit kite flying parties during the night!
