No, I’m not talking about Dance Trance–one of the latest fitness crazes–but along the way from Sigiriya to Kandy, we did stumble upon a random Hindu festival in a random city in Sri Lanka. I wonder if this was a local festival just for this town as I wasn’t aware of any particular Hindu holiday? But it was a cool site to come across, particularly the women who had danced themselves into a trance.
