A choora (or chura; plural chooriyan) is a set of bangles, traditionally worn by a bride on her wedding day and for a period after, especially in Punjabi weddings. It is usually red and golden in colour matching to the lehenga (bride’s dress). Brides usually wear chooda for at least one and a half year after their marriage. It is given to bride by her maternal uncle. Ram Bagh, in Amritsar is famous for best chooda; Lawrence road and Rani Bagh road also offer many shops that sell Chooda and other bridal accessory.
