Festival Tours in Nepal

Festivals in Nepal have a unique charm that determines the country’s amazing cultural diversity. As a multi-cultural country, Nepal observes several festivals of different cultural and religious importance. Currently the country is high in the festival vibes as the country celebrated the biggest festival of the Hindus – the Dashain. And this biggest festival is followed by another important festival – Tihar, the festival of lights. These two back to back festivals make the country full of exciting festival vibrations that people enjoy from the bottom of their hearts.
To understand the cultural richness and wonders of Nepal, visiting the country during the festivals is one of the best times. Festival tours in Nepal introduce and make you familiar with the way that Nepalese people celebrate the occasions and enjoy life. The grandeur of the festivals in the simplicity of life gets so nicely mixed up that can be overwhelming. Festivals in Nepal are the great occasions to know the Nepalese culture and lifestyle of people closely.

The festival the country celebrated, Dashain, brings the people of the country together. As the biggest festival celebrated in the country, this occasion marks the reunion of family members living in different places. The festival that goes for two weeks observes different rituals and the Hindu devotees celebrate the occasions with an honest indulgence. Although each day of the two weeks has its own importance, the most important day is the tenth day. Marked to celebrate the victory of the good over the evil, the tenth day is considered to be the victorious day for the good after a ten-day long battle with the evil. After the tenth day, the celebration of the victory goes for five more days.
Likewise, another important festival in Nepal, Tihar is approaching in less than two weeks’ time. People also consider the festival as the festival of lights as people decorate their houses and surroundings in the colorful lights and candle lights. Although lights look fascinating and have a significant place during the festival, this festival celebrates the incredible and sacred love and bonding between sister and brother. This is the celebration of siblinghood. The sisters pray for the wellbeing of their brothers and brothers also offer their sisters with beautiful gifts. Incredible relationship amongst the sisters and brothers throughout the country is widely celebrated during the festival. People also go from door to door singing and dancing.

Although we have mentioned only Dashain and Tihar here in this blog post, Nepal observes a lot of different other festivals throughout the year.
