Rangoli is a traditional Indian art form in which patterns are created on the floor using colored powders, flower petals, rice, and sand. These intricate designs welcome guests and deities, symbolizing prosperity and good fortune. Each region of India has its own distinctive style, from the dotted kolam of Tamil Nadu to the flower-petal alpona of Bengal.
