PHOTO | "Monkeys" from Vevcani - the main attraction of the carnival

Humor and satire from yesterday are at one address - where all roads lead, and that is Vevcani. The procession of the basilisks delighted the large audience. From the traditional bride and groom, Stupid Augustus, to all kinds of scarecrows, demons, zombies, brides, satirically depicted politicians.

This year, the "Monkeys" mask attracted the most attention. A group mask with mischievous monkeys walking around with a huge green cage decorated with bananas and meat. They threw in all directions and made noises. They were a real attraction for the audience.

The Vevcani Carnival this year once again gathered hundreds of visitors from the country and beyond, who traveled to Vevcani despite the weather conditions. The snow did not stop the organizers from being up to the task and maintaining the centuries-old tradition.

The basilisks with a variety of creative costumes "expelled the evil" and announced the arrival of the New Year according to the Julian calendar.
