throw and smear each other with colorful powders and water. The atmosphere is
filled with laughter, music, and dance as people join in the festivities,
disregarding social norms and barriers.
Ritual Bonfires

Dahan." These bonfires symbolize the victory of good over evil and are a

of past mistakes and forgive others.

shared among friends and family. One of the most popular treats is "gujiya," a
sweet dumpling filled with khoya, nuts, and raisins, symbolizing the sweetness
and joy of the festival.

unity and joy.
