Holi is an ancient Indian festival to celebrate the arrival of spring, the end of winter, and the blossoming of love. It takes place all over India, but we chose to celebrate in the town of Pushkar.
The first night of Holi is known as Holika Dahan where people gather and light a massive bonfire and perform various rituals.
The next morning, known as Rangwali Holi, is when the real fun begins.
As the celebrations begin, you’ll want to arm yourself with the colored powder. Each color has a different meaning... red is for love, yellow represents turmeric, blue represents the Hindu god Krishna, and green is for new beginning.
