Biska Jatra stands as one of Bhaktapur’s most revered festivals, embodying significant cultural and historical value. • Celebrated by the Newar community of Bhaktapur, Biska Jatra holds immense popularity and intensity, its exact date varying with the solar calendar and astrological positions. Aligning with the end and start of the Bikram Sambat calendar year, it commences five days before the year’s end, culminating four days into the new year. Held in mid-April this year (April 9-April 17), it marks the welcoming of spring and spans eight nights and nine days, drawing thousands from across the country to Bhaktapur. • Visitors, regardless of ethnic or religious background, flock to Bhaktapur to witness the festivities, believed to bring prosperity and happiness to those who pay homage to the chariots and deities. The festival also seeks to appease God Bhairav, with prayers and offerings made to alleviate suffering. • A notable highlight of the Jatra is the ‘lingo,’ a towering pole erected on the last day of the month Chaitra, symbolizing the downfall of one’s enemies. Following its collapse and the commencement of the Nepali New Year, the festivities continue for two more days, featuring a chariot clashing festival , where devotees assemble and collide the chariots of the God Bhairava and the Goddess Bhadra Kali against each other. • Additionally, rituals such as Sindoor Jatra and Tongue-Piercing Jatra add further cultural depth to the celebration. • #immersiveexperience #regenerativetourism #responsibletourism #luxurytravel #sustainablehospitality #Bhaktapur #Nepal #artlovers #culture #BisketJatra • #travel #nepalnow #sustainabletravel #tourismeducation #localart #visitNepal #travelwithapurpose #explorenepal #Biskajatra #FestivalsinNepal #explorepage #explore #foryoupage #festivals #festival2024
