Most Emotional and Beautiful Moments
Travellers come from overseas to witness the special Holi celebrations in Bank-e-Bihari temple of Vrindavan and Mathura's Lathi Maar Holi.All people play with dry colours and seek elders' blessings by putting gulal and abeer on the face of the elders and dance and lots of fun.
Lathimar Holi at Barsana and Nandgaon.
This is tradittional style of Holi of vrindavan and mathura celebrations where women chase men and beat them up with Lathis (sticks), and it’s called Lathimar Holi. There are two towns which celebrate this festival with zest and these are Barsana and Nandgaon.
This is how the story behind the festival goes. Lord Krishna visited Barsana to meet Radha for Holi and teased her and her friends a lot. The ladies got a little offended and decided to teach Krishna a lesson and chased him away by beating him with sticks. So now men from Krishna’s village Nandgaon visit Barsana on this day and get beaten up and chased by the women here.
Thank you guys.you are always welcome to India and enjoy your journey and participate in festival and capture beautiful moments.
