This city, which is overcrowded even in normal times, I can’t even imagine how crowded this city will be during carnival, but it will be full of fun! However, in order not to be a victim of the budget, the basic items of travel such as accommodation and air tickets should be organized in advance.

9 – Burning Man (Arif , Güray)
I guess it’s one of the first things that come to mind when it comes to a world-famous festival.. It is held every year in the Black Rock Desert located in the Nevada state of USA and is held in the period of August – September for 9 days. Burning Man, the “Burning Man”, takes its name from the burning of a wooden puppet on the last day of the festival.. Of course, people are competing to see how I can wear the most interesting costume.. As the temperature difference between day and night is so high because of the desert, everyone is wearing fur, but the festival is difficult in desert conditions! The only thing I’m worried about is these.. I hope this festival will cost a lot of money, one day I will be lucky too.. Thanks to my lucky angels, the cheapest way is the duchess, what can I say.

Scotland for the Fringe Festival held in Edinburgh during the period of August – September, the world’s most comprehensive it’s called art festival. Its story is based on the participation of 8 uninvited theater groups in the Edinburgh International Festival in 1947, which was started to enrich European cultural life after the Second World War.. It takes a whole month and during this time the theater is full of beautiful works by cabaret and street artists.. I really wanted to go to Scotland, and I think I found what month to plan this trip!
12 – Barcelona Merce Festival (Beyhan)
The Fiesta De La Merce, which takes place in Spain‘s favorite Barcelona, usually around September for 3 days every year, makes it different from all other festivals. The biggest thing that distinguishes it is probably the fireworks displays.. Catalonia’s famous towers of people, the streets of Barcelona covered with dance and music, are a very enthusiastic festival with models spewing fireworks from their mouths.

If you want to take part in the famous tents at the festival and drink that first beer, you need to take care of the reservation in advance.. This festival is also very crowded, but I want it very much.. And a great excuse to travel all over Bavaria!
14 – Mexican Day of the Dead Festival (Efe)
Actually This festival, which is held all over Latin America to commemorate the dead, is identified with my dear country Mexico because the atmosphere here surpasses them all. This colorful festival, which supposedly dates back to the Aztecs who lived in Mexico all the way back in the 14th century, is celebrated like the October – November period.. As people adorn themselves, they also decorate the graves of their deceased relatives with flowers, light them with candles, and commemorate them by eating and drinking for them at the graveside.. Now, everyone turns this memorial day into a festival, creating a carnival atmosphere, almost like Halloween, by painting their faces, but the goal is not to scare but to commemorate.
15 – Japan Naked Man Festival (Efe )
Japan at Saidaiji Kannon-in temple in Okayama’ ‘Naked Man’ (The Naked Man) festival is an extremely strange festival in January where 10,000 men fight to catch sticks thrown from the window in the freezing weather with the so-called “mawashi” wraps worn by sumo wrestlers.. What is it, the sticks are holy but if you catch them, your luck will be better.. Thank goodness there is such a simple symbol as an evil eye bead in our culture in terms of luck and fortune! Respect but I’m not sure if I want to watch it
Note: I didn’t want to put a photo :))
16 – New Orleans Mardi Gras Festival (Gamze )
Easy to say, Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday) celebrated since 1857 is one of the craziest entertainments in the world! In February, Bourbon Street of New Orleans in America turns into a flood of people and becomes a real party place. Purple, green and golden yellow beads act as a kind of money throughout the celebration.. From those who want to buy the beads, which have different meanings according to their colors, you may have the most extreme demands at the levels where your imagination can go further or you will not miss the taste of the event.. In other words, this is a bus, too, and very shameful things.
