A Unique Celebration

At RAAS, the Diwali celebration is designed to be soulful and memorable. Instead of the usual firecracker displays that can be overwhelming and loud, guests are treated to a night under the stars, where the twinkling lights of the sky and flickering diyas create a magical ambience. The sounds of rustling leaves and distant wildlife replace the cacophony of fireworks, allowing for a deeper connection with the natural world.

Diwali Puja Rituals

The highlight of this unique celebration is the Diwali Puja, a sacred ritual that honours Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth and prosperity. Guests can participate in this spiritual ceremony, which is conducted with reverence and care. The puja is an opportunity to reflect on personal blessings and to set intentions for the coming year. Guests can engage in traditional flower arrangements and lamp lighting. Post this, you can indulge in an array of delightful snacks and drinks, crafted from local ingredients that celebrate Rajasthan’s rich culinary heritage.

Culinary Delights

RAAS is committed to sustainability and locally sourced produce. The cuisine served during the Diwali celebration features seasonal ingredients grown in hotel gardens or sourced from local farms. This farm-to-table approach enhances flavour, supports local agriculture, and reduces environmental impact.

Guests can savour traditional Rajasthani delicacies such as Gajar ka Halwa, Mohan Thaal, and Mawa Kachori in addition to an assortment of sweets that are integral to Diwali celebrations. Each dish is prepared using time-honoured techniques that reflect the region’s culinary traditions, ensuring an authentic experience.
