Fair and Festivals
The multitudinous vigour of the people of Uttar Pradesh is reflected in the
colorful vibrancy of their fairs and festivals. Whether it is the village, still
steeped in tradition, or the town, tentatively modern, an awareness of one's
roots is deeply ingrained in each and is outwardly manifested through
festivities the year round.
Fairs and festivals are celebrated with traditional gaiety and fervor to invoke
divine blessings as well as for the sheer joy of living. A celebration of life
at its best.
