Phool Holi Guide 2025: Festival of Colours in Rajasthan
Rajasthani Holi is a grand display of colours, culture, and tradition. One of the highlight ways to celebrate is through Phool Holi. The Phool Holi festival in Pushkar is where petals are used instead of traditional colours. Rooted in the legends of Lord Krishna and Radha, the floral celebration is incredibly vibrant in temples across Rajasthan, whereby devotees shower each other with fragrant flower petals in an atmosphere that fills the air with devotion and joy.
The most famous place to experience Holi is Pushkar. With its vibrant arts and culture, Pushkar hosts a unique Holi that attracts tourists from all over the world.
