'Holi' is one of the greatest festival of Hindus. It is a festival of colours. This festival falls on a full moon day in Phalgun Month of Hindu Calender.
The story behind the Holi festival is that there was a king named Hiranya kashyap, he had a son, Prahlad, a holy spirit and highly devoted to God but Prahlad's devotion enraged Hiranya kashyap and he planned to kill his own son. He asked her sister Holika, who was immune to fire, to sit in fire taking Prahlad in her lap. Fortunately Prahlad, who was blessed by Lord, was saved and Holika was burnt to ashes.
It is also a festival of love and unity and celebrates the triumph of good over evil. The festival is celebrated with lot of pomp in north India.

Holi
It is known as festival of colors. It is a very holy festival. This festival is celebrated for 2 days . This festival is celebrated because there is a pauranic reason behind it. That is the demon king Hiranykashyap was being prayed by everyone except his own son named Prahalad. Prahalad was a follower of Vishnu. That's why his father asked him many times to stop but every time he denied. Then his father asked his sister to sit in the fire with Prahalad. Holika was having a boon that fire couldn't burnt her.But Holika was dead in the fire and Prahalad remained safe. From that day Holi is being celebrated each year. First day people worship Holika and the second day they play with colours and water. They enjoy it very much. People eat different sweets, snacks, drinks etc.Really Holi is a very amazing festival.
