Parade of the Picturesque Pachyderms<\/strong>
\nThe king of thickly skinned mammals and uncrowned king of the jungle have had historical importance in the kingdoms of India. Their inevitable presence has earned them a traditional festival in the pink city of Rajasthan<\/a><\/strong>.

\nAs an integral part of the country’s culture and lifestyle, the gentle giants attract a huge crowd.
\nThe full moon day or Holika Dahan Day will see the masculine procession of the female elephants in an emphatic way. Rugs, anklets, jewellery, and even mild paints are applied to decorate the majestic tuskers. Elephants join the holy celebration in their own way remembering the victory of good over bad.<\/p>\n

Majestic Mahouts and Adorable Games<\/strong>
\nMahouts decorate themselves in their exotic of attires featuring a royal look. They thump the grounds with their sticks to add the spice of sound to the event.

The GajShrinagar exhibition is conducted on the same ground as the festive. Buy eye-catching souvenirs, ornaments, and have taste worthy local cuisine to amp up the festive mood.<\/p>\n

The Elephant Festival’s History<\/strong>
\nThere is a mythological significance associated with this celebration like many other Indian festivals<\/a><\/strong>. According to a favourite legend, when gods and demons fought at the oceans, nine gems had emerged from the sea. Elephants are one among those nine gems. The brutality of the festival has been stopped by Wildlife Conservation groups which lead to the cease of elephant fights. Instead, mild and beautiful events happen to suffice the memory palace of the visitors. Unforgettable amount of fireworks will wish a valedictory colouring the evening sky.<\/p>\n
