About this place:

Around five o'clock in the afternoon chief Wanki takes a seat on his thrown. He is wearing a luxurious gown and a hat made out of elepant hair. On his sign the dance starts. Fifty to sixty people dance in a big circle and pay honour to the chief. Once in a while a gun is fired which is highly appreciated by the chief. The people dance for hours and are sometimes accompanied by the chief.
When the dance is over the food and drinks are being served.
