PTI quoted a participant as saying. The Flea market in Yafo was all decked up with its festive appeal attracting thousands of Indian enthusiasts to the event, these included Israelis of Indian origin and Indian students, from all over the country.
The Indian mission in Israel took to social media platform X (formerly Twitter) and stated, “In association with #TelAvivYafo Municipality, the Embassy of India celebrated the ‘India in Flea Market’ event on the occasion of #Holi and #Purim festivals. Over 2000 visitors enjoyed Indian dance, classical music, Indian dresses, henna, calligraphy in Hindi & Indian Chai." The event saw a number of activities such as dance workshops with songs, presentations narrating the significance of Holi and messages reverberating the call for unity that Purim and Holi suggest.
Three Israeli artists marked the day with their performance as they played classical Indian instruments including Bansuri, Tabla and Sitar during their 'Trikundram' music performance. (With inputs from PTI)Milestone Alert!
