Devotees gather at the Krishna Temple of Shriji, during Lathmar Holi. Men from Barsana raid the town whilst being assaulted with coloured water sprayed from rooftops, they are beaten by Nandgaon's women with large sticks and smeared with Holi coloured powders in a counterpart festival to the one held in Barsana on the previous day. The spectacle is a riot of colour amidst frenzied celebrations.
