What a Mangolicious moment on visiting the 30th Mango Festival in New Delhi. More than three hundred varieties of Mangoes were on display.
It was a yummy and tempting treat for the eyes. Mango infact is one of the oldest fruits known to India.
Do we also know that our own country India is known as the 'MANGO CAPITAL of the world'?
India tops the list of Mango-producing countries in the world.
It may also be a surprising fact filled with a feeling of nationalist fervour that India alone grows almost 1500 varieties of Mangoes out of close to 2000 varieties grown the world over.
The sweet, pulpy and juicy aroma of the KING OF FRUITS leaves a heavenly experience for every visitor who comes to witness the glory of this exotic fruit.
The MANGO FESTIVAL was first held in 1988 and is a beautiful platform to witness the unique and large varieties of Mangoes under one roof.

Mango growers from across the country including Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Punjab, Himachal Pradesh and many other states displayed the traditional and hybrid varieties of Mangoes.
It felt like a complete journey through hundreds of Mango Orchards, with a unique and refreshing experience.
The lovely Mango was the 'BIG STAR ' of the event and brings refreshing sweetness in our lives.
