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 festival of Gangaur is very
significant for women of Rajasthan. It is a time for them to
dress up in their best clothes and participate in the festival.
They 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 Pichola. 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 portayed through
songs, dances and other programmes. The festival culminates
with an impressive fireworks display. Like other fairs and festivals
celebrated throughout the state, there is a lot of activity
which keeps the participants in a joyful frame of mind, eager
to enjoy every moment of the celebrations.
