Khaita on Mount Amiata
“Three villages on the slopes of Monte Amiata, where Merigar is situated, opened their doors to the Joyful Dances as part of initiatives to promote a culture of territory and environment: Monticello, a small village where 42 different ethnic groups live together, extended an invitation to participate in the local ethnic festival; Salaiola, during the annual Moon Festival, where workshops and demonstrations of various arts and disciplines take place; Abbadia San Salvatore dedicated an entire day to children with Khaita, Kumar Kumari and other activities aimed at discovering nature during the Eco Festival.”
