Rajasthan Festival in March

March in Rajasthan is marked by vibrant celebrations of Holi, the festival of colors, which is celebrated with immense enthusiasm across the state. The streets come alive with people throwing colored powders, singing, dancing, and enjoying festive foods. In Jaipur, the Holi festivities are particularly grand, with the royal family sometimes participating in the celebrations. Another significant event in March is the Mewar Festival in Udaipur, which coincides with the arrival of spring. It is characterized by traditional music, dance performances, processions, and a unique display of Rajasthani culture. The festival culminates in a ceremony on Lake Pichola, where women carry statues of the goddess Gauri to be immersed in the water, symbolizing fertility and prosperity.
