The International Kite Festival in Gujarat is celebrated on the 14th of January every year and is one of the main attractions of tourism in Gujarat.

One of the main attractions of the kite festival is the Kite- flying competition. All the people stand on the rooftops flying their own kites while trying to bring down or cut the other person’s kite. There is no bar on age, everyone is a child on this day.

When you go to Gujarat you will see sellers making Manjha before the big day. Manjha is the string that is used to control the kite. It is coloured and covered with powdered glass, then dried. If not handled right, the Manjha can injure. This sharp string is what cuts the other kites.

I bet all of you have seen illuminated box (known as Tukkals) let out into the sky but have you ever seen thousands of them let out all together? The night sky on the International Kite festival is one that should never be missed. A lit up sky, beautiful and radiant. Just sit back, relax and enjoy the view like never before.
