\n Nepal has a full calendar for festivals. That there are two New Year celebrations (the Buddhist Losar <\/strong>and the Hindu Bikram<\/strong>) says enough: Nepal does not pass up an opportunity to celebrate a festival. Both the Buddhist and Hindu gods are honored. Not only within the temple walls but also on the street. Not only with gentle prayers, but also with bombastic singing, dance and appearance. Monks who usually retreat to their temples now dance masked through the streets.<\/p>\n \n During the festival Teej<\/strong>, women dress in their most beautiful saris. Holi<\/strong> is the famous festival where you can dance through the streets yourself. Armed with a bag of dye so that you, like the Nepalese, can provide everyone who crosses your path with a colorful layer of powder. Gods guarantee some big feasts that you should not miss. The streets of Bhaktapur are almost too narrow when the gods Bhairab and Bhadrakali are carried on floats throughout the city during Bisket Jatra<\/strong> (April). Sometimes they stand still for a moment, then the population flows from all sides and the statues are buried with flowers, rice, coins and red dye. Small sacrifices in the hope of a prosperous year.<\/p>\n \n Larger sacrifices are made during Dashain <\/strong>(September – October) where bulls, goats and pigs are sacrificed. This family festival can also be celebrated without Nepalese family. In Kathmandu<\/a><\/p>\n
