Krishna Janmashtami, also known as Janmashtami or Gokulashtami, is an annual Hindu festival that celebrates the birth of Krishna, the eighth avatar of Vishnu.

This Festival celebrates the birthday of Lord Krishna, the eighth incarnation of Lord Vishnu. The festival is also referred to as Gokulashtami or Govinda in Maharashtra. Lord Krishna is revered for his wisdom about how to live life on earth.

The highlight on the second day is the Dahi Handi event. Clay pots containing butter, curd and money are strung up high from buildings and young Govindas form a human pyramid and compete to reach the pots and break them open.
