Kalpathy car fest: a spectacle of faith and tradition
Chariots of the Sree Visalakshi Sametha Viswanatha Swamy temple start moving through the streets

The ongoing festivities in connection with the famous Kalpathy Ratholsavam entered its final exciting phase on Wednesday afternoon when the chariots of the Sree Visalakshi Sametha Viswanatha Swamy temple started moving through the streets. It will reach a crescendo by Friday night.

Although the Ratholsavam is an 11-day celebration, the final three days when the chariots of the four temples carry their respective deities are considered the festival climax.
