The Aranmula Boat Race is held in Kerala (India) with a great deal of fervor and vigor.
Myth:According to legend, a devotee was once carrying offerings for Lord Krishna. Unfortunately his boat was looted. This broke his heart and in order to give him consolation, God himself appeared before him. He was advised to make larger boats so that they could be rowed by several men and could easily make its way through the water. This is how the snake boats originated. The people of Aranmula-Kerala even believe that on the day of the race the boat possesses and shares some of the attributes of God.
