Kite Flying During Uttarayan

Typically a Gujarati phenomenon, the festival of Uttarayan is the most colourful time in the city of Rajkot. Celebrated in the month of January every year, it is that time when almost all normal routines and activities come to a standstill as kites of various colors, shapes and sizes (some only those you've imagined) fill up the skies of Rajkot (and across all cities of Gujarat). From early morning to late at night, Uttarayan provides lots of fun and beautiful sights that you will remember for a long time. No matter what your background or beliefs, if you are in Rajkot (or anywhere in Gujarat) in January, you will no doubt find yourself flying kites with everyone else.
