Suraj Kund Crafts Mela is organised in Suraj Kund – a sub-urb area of delhi towards faridabad – every year in the month of february.
What is so special about this particular Mela ??
1) It is just a stone’s throw away from my home 🙂
2) You have craftsman coming literally from all over India to showcase & sell crafts products like shawl, metal items, pottery items & god knows what ..
3) The atmosphere in this mela is really charged & energised .. you have rajasthani dance in one corner & real bhangra in another corner .. bhel puri etc served in one corner & jhoolas outside the mela ..
4) They also choose some state as the theme every year .. and showcase cultural snippets from that state ..
I just talked to my parents back at India and they told that this year ‘Maharashtra’ has been chosen as the theme state .. hmmm .. god I wished for a moment to be there and enjoy myself to the fullest .. maybe next year ..
Here‘s some pics i managed to find on Suraj Kund Mela on net ..
