Every evening, men gather in the town of Bannu in Pakistan's Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Province, put on flower garlands, and dance to the sound of flutes and drums.

Word of the "Bannu evenings" has spread, and visitors now come from across Pakistan to join in the celebrations. Video by Umar Daraz Wazir, RFE/RL's Radio Mashaal
