The festival honoring the arrival of spring with colorful powders is Holi, celebrated predominantly in India. This vibrant festival promotes the triumph of good over evil and marks the end of winter. Participants engage in playful festivities by throwing colored powders—known as gulal—at each other, symbolizing joy and the arrival of new life. Holi is also a time for forgiveness and renewing relationships as families and friends come together, fostering unity among diverse communities.
