About Holi
Holi is a very popular festival in India that welcomes the Spring and celebrates the new life and
energy of the season. Although Holi has religious roots, not much religious activity is involved in its celebration.
Holi is the most energetic Indian festival, filled with fun and good humour. Holi is also called
'The Festival of Colours', and people celebrate the festival by smearing each other with paint, and
throwing coloured powder and dye around in an atmosphere of great good humour.
