Kites flying is mostly seen during a festival - called makar sankrati. It is a sight to see mostly the terrace is used for this sport. It is a kind of a sport in that the compeition is to snap cut someone else' s kite. For spectators it is a well worth time spent. As kids we did fly kites but never knew the art to snap cut kites that belonged to others. Kites are sold in the market but we did our own kites. Image credit:
