Garba is a type of folk dance from the Indian state of Gujarat. It's danced during the festival of Navratri.
At first only a few people danced.
Navratri lasts nine nights- that's nine nights of garba dancing!

We ate Gujarati food at the Garba dance- doklam, dal kachori, jalebi, fafda.
Kids joined in on the garba dance, too!
The festival of Navratri celebrates the triumph of Good over Evil.
