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 women folk 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 Pichhola. 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 portrayed through
songs, dances and other programmes. The festival
culminates with an impressive fireworks display.
