Burning Man 2009 festival between Aug 31-Sept 7 at the Black Rock Desert in Nevada.

A beautiful evening, marvelous weather, a clear sky with twinkling stars for company, a desert that looks beautiful and an 84 ft. high burning effigy! If it sounds interesting to you, then in that case, the Burning Man is definitely the event for you to attend.

Held in the beautiful Black Rock Desert, of Northern Nevada, the Burning Man is one of the most popular annual events of the region attracting thousands of tourists, who come here to attend this festival of lights.

Whatever be your reason for making a visit to this event, you can be assured that you will never be disappointed on visiting this place.
