The celebration of Holi is very ancient in its origin. By its very origin, Holi is celebrated as the ultimate triumph of the “good” over the “evil.” The many colours associated with Holi are said to be the face of celebrations.

On the occasion of Holi Hindus meet with friends and plays with the colours, dance and generally have a good time. Hindus usually gather in temples and celebrate the Holi there.
