Hindu Temple in the COBB COUNTY area a very neat & tidy - calm & quiet place. Had an occassion to visit during the DASARA Festival time.Dasara celebrations/ RAVANA DAHAN were attended by few hundreds of people & women thronged in TRADITIONAL COSTUMES & many of the Gentlemen in Kurta Pyjamas, a scene to behold.

Indian Culture...Jai Ho...
