Trip Overview

Shivaratri Festival is the most famous and celebrated festival of Nepal which attracts large crowds from far-Flung places both in India and Nepal. The festival as its very name suggests is consecrated in honor of Lord Shiva.

 

It is observed by bathing and holding of a religious fast. All Shiva shrines become the places of visit for dracaena, but the greatest attraction of all is held by the temple of Pashupatinath in Kathmandu. One gets to see hundreds of thousand of devout Hindus coming to visit the temple of Pashupati on this day.

 

On this day religious Hindus worship Lord Shiva by offering flowers, garlands, ‘bel patra’ (leaves of ‘bet’ f rub), fruits, coins and so on and also by chanting prayers and hymns. Among them are a large number of Sadhus and ascetics. Many people like to keep awake for the whole night keeping vigilance over an oil lamp burnt to please Shiva. Children are seen keeping awake similarly over a bonfire in many localities.

 

In the afternoon an official function is held to celebrate this festival at Tundikhel. The Royal Nepalese Army organizes a show in which volleys of gunfire are sounded. The ceremony is witnessed by His Majesty the King.
