Rath Yatra

Rath Yatra
or Chariot festival is the Odia festival which involves a public procession with a chariot with deities Jagannath (Vishnu avatar), Balabhadra (his brother), Subhadra (his sister) and Sudarshana Chakra (his weapon) on a rath, a wooden chariot.

It attracts over a million Hindu pilgrims who join the procession each year.

Here is my take on it.
Happy Rath Yatra!
