Most of us love the holidays and are happy to wish our friends, family and colleagues a Happy New Year, Happy Birthday, March Eighth and Valentine's Day. But there are holidays in the world about which practically nothing is known in Russia. Meanwhile, they also have a special atmosphere, old customs and sometimes take on a huge scale. Today we bring to your attention Top 10 most unusual holidays in the world.

10. Feast of chickens in the US state of Nebraska.

The festival takes place every summer in the city of Wayne and is entirely dedicated to the celebration of the feathered inhabitants of the chicken coop. Men dress up in chickens and perform in a colorful show. An elegant perch is erected on the square. The only event that upsets the heroes of the occasion is the chicken wings competition.

9. Monkey banquet in Lopburi province, Thailand.

Every year, local residents prepare refreshments from fruits and vegetables, which can be tasted from more than 600 primates from nearby forests. The holiday is dedicated to the god Rama, to whom the army of monkeys helped to win a number of brilliant victories.

The tomato slaughter is one of the most fun and popular holidays in Spain. About 35 thousand people gather in Bunyol annually to fight using at least 100 tons of ripe tomatoes. To avoid injury, the tomato should be stretched by hand before throwing. At the end of the fun, the area is washed with water from hoses.

7. Holi - a festival of colors in New Delhi.
