(200507) -- COLOMBO, May 7, 2020 (Xinhua) -- Buddhist devotees celebrate the Vesak festival in Colombo, Sri Lanka on May 7, 2020. The Vesak festival is one of the holiest festivals celebrated in Sri Lanka as it marks the birth, enlightenment and passing away of the Lord Buddha. This year local authorities have urged people to remain indoors and have cancelled all public gatherings to prevent a further spread of COVID-19 and few devotees living near temples went to the temples to offer their prayers.
