Chhath

Rounding out the list of most famous festivals in Nepal is Chhath. According to the lunar calendar, this is a four-day feast that takes place in November or October. This event is observed by Mithila locals and is the Terai community's hallmark festivity. This festival's ceremonies are centered on paying homage to the Sun God for his benevolence and light over the people. During the day, the villagers fast and pray for success and wealth.

They sit down for a magnificent feast after admiring the sunset. Other essential traditions of this event include a holy plunge in the river, water diving, and the preparation of unique foods for the Sun God, among others.

You get to enjoy those delicacies after fasting. Anarsa and Thekuwa are two of the best foods to taste during this event. Unfortunately, these dishes are not typically prepared at other times.
