Exploring India’s Culture And Heritage Festival Food Of India
Abstract
There is a vast amount of cultural diversity present
in India, represented through a vast range of
festivals that encompass their own unique
traditional foods, which indicate profound cultural,
religious, and seasonal meaning. However, much of
this culinary heritage is undocumented or dispersed
across informal platforms. This project, titled
"Exploring India’s Culture & Heritage: Festival
Food of India," seeks to digitally preserve and
present these traditions through an interactive web
platform. The platform showcases a vibrant,
clickable map of India where users can explore
festival foods by state. Each state entry provides
details about a major festival and its signature dish,
including cultural relevance, ingredients,
preparation methods, and multimedia content like
images and recipe videos. A relational database
supports dynamic content fetching, ensuring a
smooth user experience.
In a way to promote community involvement,
members of the public are able to upload their own
recipes, stories, and videos of festival foods, which
are authenticated and published. The platform uses
modern web technologies and responsive design to
offer an accessible, educational, and immersive
experience. Above all, the project hopes to celebrate
cultural awareness and to conserve the rich heritage
of India's festival food, while doing so in a fun and
deposit on a way that is digitally accessible.
