thanks for the tag Bhavi. A little tied up with work so doubt I'd be able to take part in the fun activities, but love to share memories of one of my most favourite festival.
Being a mysorean, known as the southern city of palaces, whose dasara celebrations are world famous, when the city comes alive with literally every member of the community taking part in the celebrations.
Streets sparkling with lights, different exhibitions, musical concerts and cultural activities to suit every age and taste. Celebrations every where you look. To top all this, the magnificent mysore palace opened to public to get a peak of the throne and lit up at night with over 100k light bulbs. All this culminating in the grand procession on vijaya dashami when we would push through the crowds just to get a glimpse of the ambari aane(palace elephant) carrying the goddess chamundeshwari idol and the innovative tableaux showcasing the city's rich culture.
Another exciting aspect was planning how to arrange the gombe(gollu) better than the previous year. We'd also look forward to visiting friends place to see their gombe arrangements and be fed with different snacks every day. Ahh So many beautiful memories. Its been a while since I last went back home during dasara. Hoping I can do that in the near future.

Thank you so much will definitely want to travel to Mysuru once and Kolkata another year. We celebrate bathukamma for Dussera which is very colorful too and thanks to huge Gujarati community in Hyderabad and here in UK we also do garba.

I loved your vivid description of the beautiful celebrations at Mysore..Almost felt like I visited the place! I have visited it twice when I was really young..I loved the gorgeous Mysore Palace and I'm sure the Navratri celebrations there will be breathtakingly beautiful š¤©..I really hope I can visit the place someday around this time..The Gollus are lovely and adorable too! Thanks a lot Nisha
Happy Navarati Everyone
