Buso festival at Mohács, Hungary - MyPictureDay Submission

Recently we have visited a very special festival at Mohács, Hungary - the Buso festival or the "Busó-walk".

So first of all you could ask what is a Busó, here you go:

Local people are dressing up in scary costumes for scaring the winter away! The festival originates to the 18th century (at least locally) and has a festive positive atmosphere.

The Busó's are also carrying sticks and rakes for occasionally poking people as well :)

Even children join the celebration. They have mini-sized costumes and masks to do so!

During the festival the locals are also parading with carts specially prepared for the event

All pictures were made with my iPhone SE.

Thank you @timsaid for organizing this contest!
