This Festival in Nepal is ABSOLUTELY WILD! 🇳🇵

[@TheJourneyofJosh]

Hello everyone! Happy Friday and welcome to the weekend 😍I hope you all enjoy this video, it honestly is one of my favourites. If you enjoy it and want to help me out, please share it around social media, let's make it viral 😁 It was obviously filmed last year, I am extremely behind on my uploads as filming so many videos and editing them at the same time is very hard to do and I really just end up doing one or the other 😅However! I am actually currently in Kathmandu as we speak, editing like a mad man to get these videos out for you guys. If you see me around the Thamel area, please feel free to come say hello! 🥰 Look forward to reading your wonderful comments as always and cant wait for you to see the rest of the videos from my time in Nepal! Much Love ❤

We Nepalese have at least two festival in the gap of 15 days . And we celebrate hundreds of festivals each year .

[@TheJourneyofJosh]

It’s crazy 😆 always a celebration to look forward to in Nepal! Love it 🥰

[@angrymaniac53]

More like Newar people rather than generalizing Nepalese as whole.

[@sahilbhaila4213]

​@@angrymaniac53 Newars have festivals everyday, if you count the small festivals and the local festivals that are only celebrated in one small place. Some festivals are celebrated only in an alley.

[@shreerajpaudel5168]

Look at the Diversity, look at hospitality, look at respect, look at culture, look at kindness, Nepal is undoubtedly the best country in the world ❤❤❤❤❤

[@TheJourneyofJosh]

Nepal really does have it all! The people are some of the best ❤️

[@shreejanakarmacharya747]

Thank a lot to Newar community who are preserving culture like this ❤ making every year joyful with festival

[@sumitztube]

Gai jatra is true example of Nepali Resilience. It has a deep meaning. To be concise, it teaches us that we cannot deny the death but we can always find reasons to move on with life. Death is not unique experience.

[@Gaurav.P0]

Even there protest looks like a festival and celebration 😂 I love Nepalese smiling face and energy ❤

[@TheSisyphusReality]

This fest is to show that we are not alone who are grieving. It is to help us understand the concept of impermanence. 🙏🏼

[@chiyachautari2994]

16:11 the one with big read mask called "Lakhe" and other is called "Jhingha" the weight of the main character mask is around 5/6 kg. Role of jgingha is to tease Lakhe and make him angry while saving himself from being captured by lakhe. Lakhe dance is a beautiful story portrayed via dance very old and very famous from "Newari" culture.

[@satishmushyakhwo2949]

Its chumpaka in bhaktapur not jhingha

[@TheJourneyofJosh]

Thanks for the information, can't image wearing that much weight on my head and then dancing..

Samay Baji consists of many items on a single plate. But basically it must have beaten rice , chatamari, wa: , chhwela, small finger cut ginger, black soybeans, fried boiled egg, black eye beans, green leaves, potatoes, alcohol, pickles not one that west eat. Pickles are made from different vegetables. It's tangy & spicy. And lots of meat items chicken & buff basically. no mutton or pork. There are more than 200 newa cuisines.

And the tahamacha(cow of dead people) of certain area of bhaktapur are fortunate enough to follow the cow of Bhairav which helps their soul to cross a big river easily which comes as barrier on the gate of heaven. And about yomari..yes "yo"is like ,love in newari and mari is a form of bread,roti ...and it would be tastiest if its served hot and definitely not thick,hope you get better one next time❤ Keep exploring 🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵❤❤❤
