backlight double hump camels hindu pilgrimage hinduism in tow kumbh mela man night pilgrim riding towing walking

Some Hindu pilgrims come from very far riding their animals. This man and his two camels came all the way from Rajasthan.

It was really quite a sight, seeing those tall camels walking slowly and silently in the foggy streets of the festival ground.

Photo taken at the Kumbh Mela 2013 festival near Allahabad (India)

Kumbh Mela is the largest festival on Earth, taking place once every 12 years, with more than 50 million Hindu pilgrims gathering to pray and bathe in the holy Ganges river.
