Holi Festival in Nepal 2025 | A carnival of colors.

📷:cj_karki Holi is one of the most important festivals in Hinduism and one of the most carnival festivals in the world. This year Holi in Nepal is on March 13th. It is a good time to go on the ABC hike during the alpine azalea season. Origin of Holi Festival Holi Festival is also called "Holi Festival", which originates from the famous Indian epic "Mahabharata". Legend has it that there was a king named Hiranyakasipur. His son Prahalad worshiped Lord Vishnu very much. For this reason, the king tried to kill his son many times, but he failed. Later, the god Vishnu appeared and killed the king. To celebrate this victory, people threw colorful paint on each other, and the Holi Festival came from this. This festival symbolizes the victory of good over evil, as well as the arrival of spring and good expectations for the new year🤗. How to celebrate the festival On the day of Holi, the entire Nepal is immersed in a colorful world🌈. People will flock to the streets, regardless of age or sex, holding various bags or water guns filled with colored powders, chasing each other, fighting, and sprinkling colored powders at each other. For a time, the sky was filled with colored dust, and everyone was dyed in various colors, like a flowing oil painting. In addition to sprinkling colored powder, there are also lively music and dance performances. Everyone will sway to the cheerful rhythm and release their enthusiasm. The joyful atmosphere is really contagious👏! A unique festival experience Walking on the streets of Nepal, you will be surrounded by the enthusiasm of the local people. They will apply colored powder on your face and body without hesitation, and will also send you the most sincere blessings. At this moment, there is no distinction between nationality and race. Everyone is sharing joy in this ocean of colors and feeling the purest love and friendship between each other. - All in all, Holi in Nepal is truly an unforgettable experience! If you also want to experience this unique cultural charm and joyful atmosphere, you might as well come to Nepal to experience it for yourself. I believe you will fall in love with this festival full of color and love💕.
