One of the oldest street festivals in the world returns to San Antonio for the fourth consecutive year as local group Bliss House Meditation Center brings the Festival of Chariots — better known across the globe as Ratha Yatra — back to Woodlawn Lake Park. Translated as “chariot journey” in Sanskrit, the Ratha Yatra began in the eastern Indian city of Puri as a midsummer tribute to three local deities, who are paraded through the streets on specially constructed wooden chariots before returning to their temple home.
