Reincarnating Raipur
Chhattisgarh kicked off its weekend with a local food festival for people from all over India. The festival began on 17th July 2022 and came to an end on 7th August. As monsoon approaches states are in the works to promote their destination for monsoon tourism. The festival is held at different locations on scheduled dates.
Not only for tourism but for the promotion of its cuisine, the Chhattisgarhi government has taken the initiative of arranging such a festival. This festival helped people understand the local culture, traditions, food, and language with in-depth knowledge splurged by the locals.
Chhattisgarh cuisine is diverse, ranging from hot red ant chutney to fara or chousela roti (rice puris) to traditional liquor made of mahua flowers. One very particular sweet dish, Tilgur or Til Ke Ladoo has its origin in this city as well. There are both tribe- and region-specific. One will be inundated with options.
As the Rice Bowl of India, Chhattisgarh is famous for cultivating and consuming a lot of rice throughout the state. With so many mysteries and so little we know, this festival is crucial for culturally fluid people but also extremely fun for foodies. The state is also trying to encourage Cultural tourism; ecology, wellness tourism, and religious tourism.
A wonderful meal prepared by Chhattisgarh guarantees great taste and delectable influences from its neighbors. The food festival is one of the best approaches for the Chhattisgarh state government to increase community-based tourism.
The culinary festival took place at the Hotel Grand Imperia in Raipur on July 17. At the Eco Hill Resort Kabir in Chabutra and the Shaila Tourist Resort Mainpat in Surguja on July 23-24. Also, at the Baiga Ethnic Resort in Sargodha Dadar in Kabirdham on July 30-31, and the Dandami Luxury Resort in Chitrakote in Bastar on August 6-7.
Apart from some finger-licking munchies from the country, and particularly from Chhattisgarh, the festival will also feature various cultural events including music, dance, and adventure activities.
So, food lovers get ready to soak in the flavors of Jashn-e-jayka.
