Mathura, India
Day 8 is the main day for the annual Holi festival. The best place to enjoy the
celebration is the main town area of Mathura: Holi Gate and nearby places.
Celebrations at Dwarkadhish Temple (around 1 km from Holi Gate) shouldn’t be
missed. The temple accepts visitors from around 10am. Usually crowds
gather there early. If you arrive early, you might get chance to see priests
preparing bhang (an edible cannabis drink that is often used during traditional
Hindu festivals) and processions at Yamuna Ghat. The joyful color flights start
at around 10am. Enjoy the fun of dancing and songs. There are fewer people there
than at Banke Bihari Temple in Vrindivan, but the revelry will not disappoint
you. https://www.asiahighlights.com/india/holi/vrindavan-barsana-mathura
