Indian Fairs or Melas

Melas or Fairs are extremely popular not just in India but all over the world. Mela serves a very important role as most of the festivals are celebrated in individual homes. Melas that are normally celebrated for a week to over a month help to bring the community together and share greetings. Melas are definitely a means to let people enhance the feeling of harmony and brotherhood in the society. However, Melas hold much greater importance for Hindus living outside India. For them, it is the only means to enjoy and help their children adapt to the tradition of the glorious Indian festival. Indians living outside India also use the occasion to showcase Indian traditions and values in the country of their residence.

Fairs or Melas - Pushkar MelaMelas have become hugely popular these days and are enjoyed with great enthusiasm in India. Cultural programmes including magic and puppet shows are organized by professional artists and children to regale the crowd. Games and other fun-filled activities for children and grownups are usually a part of all Melas. Various Hindu Melas or Fairs include the Gangasagar Mela, Jwalamukhi Mela, Kumbha Mela, Kartikai Festival, Kurukshetra Mela and the Pushkar Mela.
