 Navratri

 In the name of Hindu’s protective mother who battles against the evil of the
world to triumph the good and harmony Goddess Durga, the Navratri is
praised over nine divine nights long in the month of Ashvin or usually
October with pomp and high spirits. Goddess Durga has various forms which
include Maa Shailputri, Brahmaachaareenee, Chandraghanta, Kushmaanda,
Skandmaata, Kaatyaayeenee, Kaalraatree, Mahagauri, and Sidhidaatree. All
of these forms are worshiped during these nine days in different locations.
 Diwali
Diwali is celebrated across India with
grandeur, but Dev Deepawali celebrated in
Uttar Pradesh stands out from

the rest. Dev Deepawali of Varanasi is

celebrated after 15 days of Diwali where
thousands of devotees worship the
goddess Ganga by taking a dip in river
Ganga. This festival is also known as
Tripotsav as it marks the victory of Lord
Shiva over demon Tripurasor. During these
festivals, stairs of Varanasi ghat is
decorated with diyas and every devotee
visiting this place, prays the goddess with
‘Deepdaan’ ritual. Looking at the
mesmerising view of Ganga aarti ritual that
takes place in the evening, you will feel as if
stars have fallen from the sky.
 Holi

Everyone is a huge fan of this

festival of colours. Along with
people applying colours on
each other and playing with
water guns and water balloons,
this festival is celebrated with
dance, DJ and bhaang in cities.
But if you want to experience
this festival uniquely, then
surely visit Barsana In Uttar
Pradesh where women hit men
with a stick and ‘braj ki holi’. In
Vrindavan, Holi is played with
flowers, and these are few once
in a lifetime experiences you
must have
