Festivals
Nepal
has more festivals than the number of
days in a year. A festival is always a
meaningful and memorable event in the
life of Nepalese people. Every festival
has some purpose to serve. From bringing
in the rain to honoring the dead or
averting calamities, every festival has
something spiritual about it. Festival
is a way of life in Nepal. With the
number of festivals that Nepal has, it
is one of the best ways to understand
and appreciate the Nepalese ways of
life.
