People dressed in traditional Czech folklore costumes dance as they parade through the village of Blatno, part of the Hlinsko town near the east Bohemian city of Pardubice, Czech Republic, during the traditional Masopust carnival celebration on February 20, 2022. The festival marks the beginning of Lent and is the equivalent to the Carnival, as “masopust” refers to “giving up meat”. (Photo by Michal Cizek/AFP Photo)
