For those bent on taking the road less traveled, No Pork Pies has created an infographic for travel company FHR that tracks the weirdest festivals all over the world.
Head over to Japan this month for Hadaka Matsuri, translated as the ‘Naked Festival’. What you can expect to see is basically “9,000 blokes in tiny loincloths, receiving purification from temple water and hoping for a lucky year”.
Some festivals are fun while others are downright bizarre, like El Colacho in Spain where a man dressed-up as a devil leaps over the town’s babies to cleanse them of evil spirits.
