Buddhism is one of the eminent cultures of Uttar Pradesh. The state houses a lot of monasteries and essential episodes from the life of Buddha. Uttar Pradesh’s link with Gautama Buddha dates back to his first-ever sermon in Sarnath and his Mahaparinirvana attainment in Kushinagar. Such connections have made Uttar Pradesh a site of pilgrimage for the Buddhist community. Buddha Purnima is therefore a celebration of a lot of devotion in the state. Holi is a colorful festival popular in most parts of the country, and Uttar Pradesh also observes the festival of Holi with a lot of enthusiasm. Barsana Holi, on the other hand, is an innovative style of celebrating Holi, particularly in the small town of Barsana of Uttar Pradesh. Barsana is the birthplace of Radha, the beloved of Lord Krishna, and is in the district of Mathura. The distinctive quality of this festival is the mock fight that the women of Barsana engage in with the men of Nandgaon, a neighboring town.
