Agra,
the city of the Taj Mahal and once the capital of the Mughal empire, has
several monuments which display the splendour of Mughal architecture.
It was here that Babar, the founder of the dynasty, had the first formal
Persian garden laid out on the banks of the river Yamuna.

Mattu Pongal, the third day, is a day dedicated to the worship and veneration
of cattle(mattu). The pongal that has been offered to the local deities is
given to the cattle to eat. The cattle are bathed and decorated. Coloured
balls of the pongal are also made and left in the open for birds. In Madurai,
Tiruchirapalli and Tanjore, a kind of bullfight, called the "Jellikattu"
is held. Bundles containing money are tied to the horns of ferocious bulls,
and unarmed villagers try to wrest the bundles from them. With ingredients
provided by the freshly gathered harvest, community meals are held at night.
