Holi day

2- Lighting the Bonfire
The eve of Holi, the pyre is light to signify the Holika Dahan. People also gather around the fire, singing, and dancing. 
3- Colors
There are numerous colors people use on this occasion. Traditionally, the user of a washable natural color is the best for this occasion. Some of the colors you can use include dhak, kumkum, turmeric, and neem. Moreover, water-based commercial pigments work as well, if you can't assess the traditional colors.
The Holi festival is celebrated across the whole of India with different traditions in each region. Generally, the celebration of Holi in North India, in the Golden Triangle of Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur, is more vivid than in the Southern part of India, which focuses on religion and temple rituals.
The Holi celebration is witnessed in every nook of these cities. In Delhi, on the morning of the festival, people usher in a huge carnival; young and old people, men and women, go out to streets and smear colored powders and water at each other while singing and dancing, saying Holi hai (It is Holi). The best region to celebrate Holi is in the residential neighborhoods in South Delhi. The Holi Cow Festival, known as Holi Moo Festival, is a popular modern-day Holi celebration. It is a carnival of non-toxic colors, street food, thandai (a yogurt drink with spices), dance and music.
In West Bengal and Odisha, Holi is celebrated as Dol Jatra with complete dedication to Lord Krishna. In these regions, the mythology is entirely different. In which Lord Krishna is believed to have expressed to Radha on this day. In the event Idols of Lord Krishna and Radha are carried and smeared with colored powder, color as thrown at people and on the streets as well. 
Presently the Holi Festival is celebrated not only in India but also in other states. The fun and the culture shared is an interesting experience that promotes social interaction among people of different backgrounds. 


Plan 3 : The Color Fight

The morning after Holika Dahan, on the day of Holi, is when the color fight begins. This part of the festival isn't about religion at all and is focused on just having fun and experiencing the joy of spring. 


People take to the streets to celebrate with their neighbors and friends armed with colored powders, liquid colors, water guns, and water balloons. The color fight is a true show of equality between men and women and people of all social backgrounds, meaning that everyone is fair game whether they are young kids or little old ladies.
If you go outside during the color fight, you can expect to return drenched and dyed. The colors are likely to ruin anything you wear so make sure to only wear old clothes.
While most of the celebrating takes place in the streets, you can also find large crowds at Hindu temples. Temples that are dedicated to Lord Krishna are especially beautiful places to be during the color fight as they draw large crowds and religious figures. Jaipur's Govind Dev Ji Temple and Vrindavan's Banke Bihari Temple are good examples.
The colored powders, or gulaal, can be bought in most Indian markets leading up to the celebrations. We recommend only purchasing natural Holi colors or making your own using colorful spices and organic powders.
Many cities across India also hold special Holi events or parties that include live music, dancing, and color fights. Delhi, Mumbai, and Goa are well-known places to go to attend color parties.
