Dainik Bhaskar – Miraj Lakecity Carnival united the whole city with the purpose of getting all the craziness out of youth this sunday(15th January, 2012). Another energetic celebration of music, dance and exhibitions in City of Lakes. Reciprocating the success of last year celebration this Carnival began from Town Hall and ended at Fatehsagar Lake.

In order to make this carnival one of the most exuberant carnivals it took many weeks of hard work, an energetic approach, lots of creativity and patience. From Townhall to Fatehsagar people were in full swing celebrating the festivities with all the happiness and good fortune.

Udaipies are known for loving the city wholeheartedly and discovering the fullness of life in the hills and lakes that adds sparkles to Udaipur 🙂

Lakecity carnival began with lots of enthusiasm; students from schools, colleges were dressed up in awesome costumes, various artists mesmerized people with their dazzling performances. There were 36 floats and 50+ performances in total displaying various art forms, dance and activities.
This carnival proved to be a dynamic tool for self exploration and to develop new forms tourism in our Udaipur.

The power of creativity that underlies these performances did transform lives of many. People gathered in groups at the squares to celebrate colors of this fantastic carnival. The Competitions held at the lakeside attracted large crowds and ended with the judgments which made this carnival memorable for the participants .

We at UB believe that such activities are very helpful in promoting a new culture in our City and promoting tourism in our City. 🙂

Hey friends. First and foremost I would like to extend my warm greetings on the occasion of our tradition and cultural day: Hariyali Amavasya.

As you all might know this year it is being celebrated the 30^th and 31^st of July, where the 31^st will be restricted for the women only. This year saw a great crowd and joy in the fair, as well as the drizzle added to the energy and worked as a stressbuster, and kept the name Hariyali worth its sake. The crowd was huge, the excitement unmatched, all stalls were ready and loaded either with eatables, toys, fancy items, women’s items, etc. People were here with the traditional pupadis or the instrument horning them all the way, and not to forget, the day’s special Malpuas.

For those who were present at the event, and want to feel the same fun again, and also, who unfortunately missed the fair, here I bring you a photostory with some of my best clicks, for the first day at the Hariyali Amavasya fair. Let the pictures speak for themselves.:)
