Kite Festival
The symbolism of this festival is to show the awakening of the Gods from their deep sleep. It is said that India created the tradition of kite flying due to the kings who found the sport entertaining and as a way to display their skills and power. It began as being a sport for kings, but over time, it began to reach the masses.
