While Hong Kong\u2019s biggest holidays may be Chinese New Year<\/a> and Mid-Autumn Festival<\/a>, the traditions, customs, and festivals from the city’s diverse communities are just as fun and festive. This year, Diwali falls on 24 October 2022 \u2013 the 15th day of Kartika, which is the holiest month in the Hindu calendar. Here\u2019s how the Hindu community celebrates the Diwali festival in Hong Kong.<\/p>\n

Diwali festival in Hong Kong<\/h2>\n

But first, what does the Festival of Lights celebrate?<\/h3>\n

Diwali comes from the Sanskrit word, Deepavali<\/em> which means a row of lighted clay lamps. The lamps, known as diyas<\/em> are lit up around households, shop fronts, and temples. People also light up firecrackers and sparklers to celebrate the joyous occasion. The three major religions that celebrate Diwali include Hindus, Sikhs, and Jains but the reasons for their celebrations slightly vary.<\/p>\n

The festival celebrates the triumph of good over evil. In Northern India, they celebrate Lord Rama\u2019s return to his kingdom, Ayodhya, after 14 years of exile by defeating Ravana (a symbol of evil). As for South Indians, they celebrate Lord Krishna\u2019s defeat against the demon Narakasura. And on this day, Hindus hold poojas<\/em> (prayers) to worship the Goddess of Prosperity, Lakshmi as the day coincides with the first day of the Hindu New Year.<\/p>\n

Sikhs honour this day as Bandi Chhor Divas, celebrating the release of Guru Hargobind from a Mughal Empire prison. And Jains observe Diwali to mark the spiritual awakening of Lord Mahavira (also known as nirvana).<\/p>\n

How do people celebrate the Diwali festival?<\/h3>\n

When it comes to festivities, people of the Indian subcontinent know how it\u2019s done! Diwali is celebrated over the course of five days (a little similar to the Chinese New Year). The first day, people clean their houses and may shop for gold to bring good fortune. On the second day, houses are decorated with diyas<\/em>, rangolis<\/em> or kolams<\/em> (designs on the floor using coloured powder or sand).<\/p>\n

Day three is the main day of the Diwali festival, marked by the Lakshmi pooja followed by feasts and passing of sweets. Day four and five are mostly for visiting families and gifting. And not to mention, ladies, gents, and kids bringing their A game when it comes to traditional attire!<\/p>\n

In Hong Kong, although there may be no public lighting displays or parades like in some other countries (plus, we can\u2019t light up firecrackers), people throw parties in their homes and restaurants. Indians would often distribute sweets to their coworkers (grab a bite!) and local ethnic stores lay out sweet treats near the entrance. Also, if you see ladies out and about shimmering in the street lights with their Indian attire, drop ’em a compliment and wish them a Happy Diwali!<\/p>\n

The lavish feast features six small plates and tandoor for sharing, followed by a choice of rice, side dish, and curry, and an Indian Dessert Box to finish. For the ultimate brunch experience, be sure to complement your meal with a free-flow package.<\/p>\n
