Barsana - Holi

Lathmar Holi
In another bizarre tradition that has been followed since ages in U.P, the men are beaten up with sticks by women while playing Holi! Originating from a small village called Barsana near Mathura, the Lathmar Holi can actually be said to be the weirdest way of celebrating the festival. However, it’s quite a sight to catch the giggling women taking sheer pleasure in putting the sticks to use. The Barsana Holi is certainly the most famous places to celebrate holi in India and will give you all the vibes of Mathura Holi for sure!
