Bhai Tika Festival in Sikkim, India
Nepali Limbu couple and their daughter sit in their home by a variety of food prepared for the Bhai Tika Festival (Worship of Brothers Day) in the Khyungte Village in Yuksom (Yuksam), West Sikkim, India. Bhai Tika is observed by sisters applying 'tilaka' or 'tika' to the foreheads of their brothers to ensure long life and thank them for the protection they provide. Brothers sit on the floor while their sisters perform their puja. This festival strengthens the close relationship between brothers and sisters. (Photo by Creative Touch Imaging Ltd./NurPhoto)
