Oruro Carnival

Each year in Oruro, just before Ash Wednesday, the Bolivian city of Oruro hosts the Carnaval de Oruro, one of the most important folkloric and cultural events in all of South America. The festival features over 28,000 dancers, performing a broad variety of ethnic dances.

Around 10,000 musicians accompany the dancers. Unlike carnival in Rio where a new theme is chosen each year, carnival in Oruro always begins with the diablada or devil dance. It is considered to retain most of the artistic expression coming from pre-Columbian America.

Donsol Bay Whale Sharks

More adventuresome travelers may enjoy a boat cruise through Donsol Bay where they’ll be able to see whale sharks migrating. The whale shark got its name because it is a shark that’s bigger than a whale – many are well over 10 meter (33 feet) long. They like tropical waters, which makes Donsol Bay in the Philippines’ southern Luzon Island a great habitat for them.

The protected species migrates through Donsol between November and June, with the numbers peaking between February and May, giving Donsol the nickname of “whale shark capital of the world.” This huge fish is not shy about approaching boats; indeed, some carry scars from encounters with propellers.

Carnival in Venice

The carnival in Venice is another pre-Lent celebration that undoubtedly causes people to ask, “Who is that masked man?” That’s because the elaborate masks revelers wear is the most famous part of the carnival that Venice has been celebrating since the 12th century.

People’s behavior behind the masks became so disreputable, the tradition of wearing masks was publicly banned for a couple of centuries, emerging from the shadows in the 20th century as a way to attract even more tourists to this canal city. Near the end of the celebration, an international panel of fashion and costume designers picks one mask as the most beautiful.

Chinese New Year in Hong Kong

Hong Kong kicks in the Chinese New Year with a big festival that considers itself among the best in the world. Colorful floats center around the animal in the Chinese Zodiac for the coming year. Bands come from around the world to play in the opening night parade.

The Chinese flock to temples to pray for a great new year. Flower markets, fireworks and horse races fill the coming days. The Lunar New Year festival lasts for 15 days, ending with the traditional Lantern Festival. The celebration is similar to Christmas in western countries as families get together and exchange gifts, usually red packets containing money.
