Lohri in punjab

Lohri can be said to be the most important festival of Punjab. Celebrated during the winter solstice, or the last day of the month when winter solstice takes place, Lohri has a lot of cultural and historical significance. While it is the winter harvest festival, people celebrate it by lighting a bonfire which serves to warm them, but they also offer sesame seeds and jaggery to the fire, things which warm the body. People sing and dance around the fire and the air is filled with festivities. The commonly held belief is that after Lohri, days become longer and warmer. While the bonfire is certainly the key attraction here, another element that stands out here is the delicious feast that includes dishes such as til rice, makki di roti and the famed sarson ka saag.
