Holi is the festival of colours in India celebrating the victory of good over evil. During this festival families burn the ‘holy’ fire symbolising the end of evil. The next day is celebrated playing with colours and water guns. It’s a fun festival and like the ‘La Tomatina’ festival in Spain, it’s just about having fun.
Holi for me is all about bonding with friends and family and yes, the absolutely delectable food :)!
