Gangaur, the festival of love, devotion, and marital bliss among couples, is celebrated with zeal and enthusiasm by the womenfolk of Rajasthan.
The Gangaur festival also celebrates a bountiful harvest.
As per the story related to this festival, Goddess Parvati observed strict penance for a long time to get Lord Shiva as her husband. Her devotion helped her realize her dreams. The 18-day festival of Gangaur marks Lord Shiva escorting his wife Parvati to her parental home to meet her parents after marriage.
Jaipur and Udaipur are two Rajasthan cities that witness royal processions. In Jaipur, the procession passes through Janani-Deodhi and goes through the famous City Palace, Choti Chaupar, Tripoliya Bazaar, Gangauri Bazaar, and Talkatora stadium.
