Festivals in India is a topic of great importance. After all, what is a culture without its beliefs? And beliefs come to life during festivities when people gather and celebrate what is common amongst themselves.

Interestingly, almost every big and small occasion in India calls for a celebration. It could be it the arrival of spring or birthdays of our beloved gods. You will never run out of reasons and seasons to celebrate in India.

Travelling during these festivals is an amazing way to celebrate and explore the opulence of Indian culture and heritage.

If you are a local Indian, you should plan a few trips around these. It will give a flare to your memories.  If you are a foreign tourist, try and find out what is happening where during your visit. I am sure you will not forget the experience.
