Truly Incredible! 10 Things You Can't Miss in India
Hair Raising Experience at Bhangarh: How many of you believe in ghosts? Do they actually exist? Can they be felt? Believers will reply in affirmative and non-believers will perish the thought. But Bhangarh, the ‘den’ of the ghosts is considered India's "most haunted" place and no one dares to go there after sunset. It is a place between Jaipur and Alwar in Rajasthan state of India and is known for its ruins. What remains though, is a shadow of a once beautiful kingdom. As per a legend there was a black magic sorcerer who cursed the residents of the palace that they all would die an unnatural death and their spirits will stay there for centuries to haunt the castle for time immemorial. This fort would really freak any living mortal. One can seldom find a temporary household in the close periphery of this fort.
Uttarayan-the Kite Festival of Gujarat: All adorned in the glory of Uttarayan, it is indeed a sight to watch the sky change colors like a rainbow in a glittering sun when the skies of Gujarat give way to colorful kites.
Millions of kite enthusiasts pitch themselves at the rooftops and waves of flying kites overwhelm a deep blue sky. This festival marks the arrival of summer, according to the Indian calendar. During this festival, many cities in Gujarat organize kite flying competition between their citizens. Uttarayan is such a huge celebration that it has become a public holiday in India for two days. Authentic local food such as Undhiyu (a mixed vegetable including yam and beans), sesame seed brittle and Jalebi is served to the crowds throughout the festival.
