Braj Holi 2025: Braj's Holi is famous worldwide. Unlike the usual one or two-day celebrations, Braj's Rangotsav lasts for 40 days, beginning on Vasant Panchami. Here, Holi is played not just with colors but also with flowers, laddoos, and even the famous Lathmar Holi.  

The celebrations start on Vasant Panchami in Braj, which includes Mathura, Vrindavan, Barsana, and Gokul—the land where Lord Krishna and Radha Rani spent their lives. Devotees play Holi with Radha Rani and Banke Bihari, immersing themselves in devotion.
