Kodava Marriage Rituals: A Sacred Union Rooted in Tradition
Kodava marriage rituals are a vivid reflection of the community’s rich cultural and spiritual heritage. Marriage ceremonies are grand and steeped in tradition, with a series of rituals that go on for several days. One of the most significant aspects is the ‘Kashi Yatra’, where the groom pretends to leave for Kashi to lead a religious life, only to be convinced by the bride’s family to return and marry. The River Homestay in Kushalnagar offers guests a chance to experience these rituals firsthand during wedding seasons. Staying here gives visitors the opportunity to immerse themselves in the celebrations, with the vibrant dance, music, and feasts that are an integral part of the event.
