# HOLI OF THE GODS

Dive into Sangla Holi: Himalayan Colors, Kinnauri Beats & Kinner Kailash Magic!
Sangla Holi has deep roots in Hindu mythology—it’s often called the “Holi of the Gods” because of its ties to Lord Shiva and the sacred Kinner Kailash peak nearby. Locals believe the festival honors divine play, like Krishna and Radha’s colorful romps, but with a Kinnauri twist.
In Sangla and Kinnaur, they celebrate with natural, organic colors made from flowers, roots, and minerals—pure and blessed, no chemicals. The main event is the Nati dance around bonfires, mimicking gods dancing in the Himalayas. Drums beat like Shiva’s damaru, and everyone—old and young—joins in joyful chaos by the Baspa River.
It’s said the festivities please the mountain deities, bringing good harvests for apples and protection from avalanches. We feast on prasad-like foods: Siddu bread offered to gods first, Churpi cheese, and Chhang shared as divine nectar. Temples like Bhimakali in Sarahan light up with special pujas, blending devotion with fun.
This “godly” vibe makes Sangla Holi feel spiritual yet wild—colors flying as blessings from above. Perfect for a meaningful festival trip!
