Indore follows the North Indian purnimanta calendar, in which each month ends on Purnima, with the Vikram Samvat year beginning on Chaitra Shukla Pratipada (Gudi Padwa).
Well-known temples: Khajrana Ganesh Temple, Bada Ganpati Temple, Annapurna Temple.
Ganesh Chaturthi draws large crowds to Khajrana Ganesh Temple, and the Rang Panchami Gair, a colour procession through the old city five days after Holi, is Indore's signature celebration.
Rahu Kalam is a period of about 90 minutes each day that Hindu tradition considers unsuitable for starting new work. It is one of eight equal parts of the daytime, and its position depends on the weekday.
They are other daily periods traditionally avoided for new beginnings. Yamaganda and Gulika are also one eighth of the daytime each, and Durmuhurtam is one or two short muhurtas that vary by weekday.
