The Legend behind Gangaur, a prominent fair and festival
in India.
Gangaur as the name suggests is made out of a combination
of the word Gan, which refers to Lord Shiva, and Gaur, which
is a connotation for Goddess Parvati. It signifies, as a prominent
fair and festival in India, the eternal conjugal union of
male and female self, which is celebrated with great pomp
and gusto in all portions of rajasthan with slight variations
in fooding and dressage in different places. Gangaur is celebrated
in places of the order of Jaipur, Bikaner and Jodhpur in Rajasthan.
As a prominent fair and festival in India, only the women
in rajasthan celebrate Gangaur, which gets initiated, days
after the Holi colors have faded away. The festival predominantly
calls for a fast by the ladies and for a period of 18 days
till the beautiful idols of Goddess Parvati are immersed in
the local well or lake after a pompous and musical procession.
In Udaipur, this holy immersion takes place in the magnificent
Lake Pichhola after a boat procession, which is accompanied
by the royal entourage too, at times.
People in Jaipur prepare a rounded sweet popularly referred
to as Ghewar, which is known all over the country as one of
the flagship delicacies of Rajasthan. The idols painted afresh
every year by popular painters of the respective regions are
akin to the fresh spirit of fairs and festivals in India and
are called as matherans.
India Travel Destinations, the tour guide, arranges for
a tour to Gangaur as a color bathed fair and festival in India
in the state of rajasthan.
