Festivity
is synonym to the Nepalese Culture. For the Nepalese, festivals are not
merely the annual spectacles, but also are a living part of their rich
cultural heritage. Festivals effectively bind together the Nepalese people
of diverse cultural backgrounds and beliefs into one nation. Most Nepalese
festivals are related to different Hindu and Buddhist deities. They are
celebrated on days consecrated for them by religion and tradition.
