 Sonepur
Fair :
Sonepur Fair is the place a variety of Birds and Cattles are sold and
bought by the merchants. This Cattle Trading Centre, has the animals
like Elephants, Horses, Buffalos, cows. The birds are the pigeons,
parrots, parrakeets and others of the same breeds. Besides this, there
is a lot of fanfare going on in the Sonepur Fair. Ash smeared, saffron
clad men blow their conches. Its the beginning of the holy day - the
kartik poornima for them. A dip in the holy waters of the Gandek River
is the second holy things to do. For those who believe in the religion,
this one is the place which takes them away from the cycle of birth and
death. Amongst the thousands of people who come here are the ones who
solely come here for taking a dip in the holy waters.
Apart from these, there are the people who do the fanfare. Musicians,
dancers, artificial jewellery sellers, mehandi designers, ethnic indian
dress sellers all have their range here. Its the one of the most
happening place during the Kartik Poornima or the Sonepur Fair. Its the
best place to see the Indian Culture in its original forms. The waters
of the Gantek rivers are also the place for taking a traditional boat
tide without the gimmicks. Set foot on the boat and be there in the
midst of the waters, go under the over-bridge, see through the Indian
life as people walk on the banks of the river and be back to enthrall
yourself with the experience you had.
