    Is it? I didn't know that. I thought it is only more famous in Gujarat because I have noticed in Rajathan and Maharastra, people there also enjoy kite festival but its not much like Gujarat.

    For the entire South India Makara Sankranti is one of the biggest festivals celebrated with religious fervour and grandeur.

    Uttarayan is very interesting festival. It is celebrated and enjoyed all over India. People fly kites and compete with each other. Different types of colourful kites are seen in the air. It is amazing.
