Celebrated a few days before the festival of Holi, the Brij
Festival is held in honor of Lord Krishna. Marked by gaiety
and fun, the Brij Festival is one of the most colorful events
in Rajasthan.
A grand celebration of the advent of spring, the Brij Festival
succeeds in breaking across all barriers of class and wealth.
In fact, you can see everyone enjoying and celebrating life
without any inhibition. The whole of Bharatpur resounds with
music and celebration during Brij and at many places you will
be able to enjoy Raslila Dances depicting the immortal love
story of Lord Krishna and Radha.
Since color plays a very important role in holi, the people
of Bharatpur just leap at the opportunity of having a pre holi
celebration. They go around smearing others with colors and
music and dancing becomes the order of the day. If you want
to witness this unique celebration of life, be sure to visit
Bharatpur during the Brij Festival and have the time of your
life.
Next year (2009), the Brij Festival is being held
from
02-04 February .
