The 12^th of February, 2011 was filled with fun and excitement for them. The Royal Garden Resort is a spot where fun never ends and the enjoyment you get when you play in the water, thrills you. The kids swam, splashed and had a great time in the pool.

Importance of Gudi Padwa

Description:- 

The word padwa is derived from the Sanskrit word Pratipa for first day of a lunar month i.e. first day after new moon day (Amavasya). A Gudhi is also erected on this occasion giving this festival its name. The term padwa or padavo is also associated with Balipratipada the third day of Diwali  which is another celebration that comes at the end of the harvesting season.

Chronological order:-                                    

Being the first day of the first month of a year, Gudhi Padwa is the New Year's Day for Marathi people

Agricultural Significance

India is a predominantly agrarian society. Thus celebrations and festivals are often linked to the turn of the season and to the sowing and reaping of crops. This day marks the end of one agricultural harvest and the beginning of a new one. In this context, the Gudhi Padwa is celebrated at the end of the Rabi season.

 

The Gudi Significance

On Gudi Padwa, you will find gudi hanging out of window or otherwise prominently displayed in traditional Maharashtrian households. Gudi is a bright green or yellow cloth adorned with brocade (zari) tied to the tip of a long bamboo over which gathi (sugar crystals), neem leaves a twig of mango leaves and a garland of red flowers is tied. A silver or copper pot is placed in the inverted position over it. This gudi is then hoisted outside the house, in a window, terrace or a high place so that everybody can see it.
