Onam is no ordinary festival. It’s a dazzling blend of tradition, mythology, and celebration, packed into 10 unforgettable days. A harvest festival at heart, it also marks the return of Kerala’s beloved King Mahabali from the netherworld—because, as the legend goes, even after centuries, the king wants to check in on his people. And, let’s just say, the people of Kerala know exactly how to welcome him back in style!
Imagine entire neighborhoods decked out with intricate floral designs called Pookalams, the mouthwatering aroma of the traditional feast Onam Sadhya in the air, and festive excitement everywhere. And let’s not forget the grand boat races, known as Vallamkali, where massive snake boats glide through the water in a spectacle of rhythm and strength. Add to that the captivating Kathakali performances, and you’ve got a festival that’s a feast for the senses.
