Navratri is a vibrant festival dedicated to the worship of Goddess Durga, the divine embodiment of Shakti (energy). The festivities include traditional dances such as garba and dandiya, which are not only visually captivating but also spiritually uplifting. Garba involves intricate hand and foot movements accompanied by jubilant clapping, while dandiya is a lively display of colorful dandiya sticks. On December 6, 2023, UNESCO added the Gujarati folk dance garba to its Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
