What is Onam and Why Is It Celebrated?
The Legend Behind Onam
Kerala’s grandest festival, Onam, marks the return of King Mahabali — remembered as a fair and beloved king. According to legend, Mahabali visits his people every year during Onam to see if they are living happily and peacefully.
When and How is Onam Celebrated?
Onam usually falls in the Malayalam month of Chingam (August–September) and is marked by grand feasts (Sadya), intricate floral decorations (Pookalam), traditional games, music, and dance.
Why Onam Means So Much
Onam, for every Malayali, is not just a celebration but an emotion — a symbol of unity, abundance, and peace. And what better way to embrace all of this than amidst nature?
