THAILAND-CULTURE-FESTIVAL

Devotees of the Chinese Jui Tui Shrine walk amid exploding fire-crackers during a street procession during the annual Vegetarian Festival in the southern Thai town of Phuket on September 30, 2014. During the festival, which begins on the first evening of the ninth lunar month and lasts nine days, religious devotees slash themselves with swords, pierce their cheeks with sharp objects and commit other painful acts to purify themselves, taking on the sins of the community.
