 Buffalo-racing ceremony

Men ride buffaloes during an annual buffalo-racing ceremony at Virhear Sour village in Kandal province, 30 km (18 miles) southeast of Phnom Penh Sept 27, 2011. The ceremony, which started more than 70 years ago, is held to honour the Neakta Preah Srok pagoda spirit. It also marks the end of the Festival of Pchum Ben, which lasts from Sept 13 to Sept 27. After the ceremony, the buffaloes are sold to the highest bidder. [Photo/Agencies]
