Today is the Bengali New Year or "Pohela Boishak". For every Bengali, Pohela Boishakh is an occasion without any equal. It is a colorful festival that not only celebrates the new year but a cultural history of a thousand years.
Every year on the occasion of Pohela Boishakh my family organizes a big gathering to welcome the new year. All the ladies drape their traditional red and white saree and everyone rejoices with mouth-watering traditional Bengali dishes, colorful fun activities and lots of singing and dancing. A few photos from last year's celebrations.
