Mewar
Festival, Udaipur ( MAR - APR) )
The Mewar Festival is celebrated to welcome the advent of spring. It coincides
with the festival of Gangaur in Udaipur, and has a unique charm about it. The
women folk gather to dress the images of Isar and Gangaur and then carry them
in a ceremonial procession through different parts of the city. The procession
winds its way to the Gangaur Ghat at Lake Pichhola. Here, the images are transferred
to special boats amidst much singing and festivity.
Once the religious part of the festival is over, it is time for cultural events
where Rajasthani culture is portrayed through songs, dances and other programmes.
The festival culminates with an impressive fireworks display.
