Odisha is a land of festivals, where every season brings its own celebration.
Today marks the beginning of Raja Parba (ΰ¬°ΰ¬/ΰ€°ΰ€) - a unique festival celebrating womanhood, fertility, and the arrival of the monsoon.
For three days, swings sway, traditional delicacies are prepared, and the earth is given rest as a mark of respect for Mother Nature.
Happy Raja Parba to everyone!
