Gujarat
can be termed as the land of fairs and Festivals. Thousands of small
and big fairs, and festivals are celebrated in different parts of
Gujarat every year. The festivals are based on the lunar or solar
calendar. Whether the festival is religious, social or related to
agricultural, the people of Gujarat enjoy them with the same fervor.

can experience the diversity of the cultural and religious traditions
of the Gujarati people during the festival season. Navarathri is the most colourful
of all festivals in Gujarat. Other main fairs
and festivals celebrated here are International Kite festival, Diwali,
Janmashtami, Holi, Tarnetar fair, Modhera Dance festival etc. |
