Navarathri Festival
The Navarathri Festival, which means to say 'Nine Nights Festival', is a ten-day Hindu celebration held in honour of Goddess Durga. Whilst the blessings and religious tasks are held at temple such as that of VeeraPathirakaali Amman Temple, at home, a doll exhibition is made in Hindu households, where the women of each household visit bearing gifts, sweets, and savoury items.
