Sri Lankan Buddhists light oil lamps while offering prayers at The Kelaniya Temple in Kelaniya during the Wesak Festival. Wesak is the most important of the Buddhist festivals and is celebrated on the full moon in May. It celebrates the Buddha's birthday, and, for some Buddhists, also marks his birth and death.
